He called the idea of destroying the prison "a waste of resources." Bush told an audience Monday night at the Army War College in Carlisle, Pa., that Abu Ghraib, scene of prisoner abuse by U.S. troops and notorious for torture under Saddam Hussein (news - web sites), will be destroyed "as a fitting symbol of Iraq's new beginning." But the offer has found no takers. Some Iraqi leaders and human rights activists criticized Bush's proposal, arguing the country needs prisons — albeit well-run ones — and cannot afford the luxury of tearing down usable structures — even if it means stamping out symbols of past repression. Good! Another reason why we don't belong there. The good Iraqis know what's best for their own country. ted
