Can You Say Coverup?
The Army certainly can. As if it weren't bad enough already.
Well, it's not. Because Mississippi native Thomas Hamill, a truck driver for Halliburton, was given medical treatment by his captors. No beatings, humiliating pictures, rape, and so forth.
How did it come to this? We're now the moral inferiors of the "thugs" described by the President.
You realize, of course, that, the Abu Ghraib story will be the cause of scores of American deaths. In addition, the prison torture story, in conjunction with the entire sorry neocon "adventure" in Iraq, has made it unsafe to travel the world as an American citizen. The chances of your being kidnapped and/or killed in many parts of the world is now several orders of magnitude higher than it was in 2000.
