Thanks for posting this LB...The Untold Story About About Prisoner Brutality in Iraq by James Dunnigan Strategy Page Surprised no one has commented on it as yet...certainly some things to think about. Did you have a link for this article? It truly does seem like we are all in Wonderland...but not a fun one....On one hand, Kerry is trying to win an election by bragging that he (and he says others) did all sorts of murder and mayhem in VietNam....from his descriptions, more than what we know so far about this Iraq prison.... and on the other hand, we have many, mostly Democrats, calling for Rumfeld's resignation. Including Chappy Teddy of "drowning and running and pay no price non-fame." How long after Congress gets the pictures do you think it will take them to do a data dump for the world? And then say....."WHO, moi? do something like thaaaaaat?"

The Arab media made much of the brutality of American interrogators, but said little about Saddam’s decades of interrogations in the Arab style. Apparently if Arabs are brutal to Arabs, it isn’t news. But if non-Arabs do it, it’s a war crime, or worse. Not that it matters much. If it doesn't "matter much" then quit whining. Honestly, I am very disappointed in how whiny conservatives get. It's the Arab media, bucko, what part of that don't you understand? [Not directed at you, Lindy, at the writer, and conservatives in general. Yes, it's a fact that the Arab media plays favorites. Whining about it is immature.]
