What do we know about what went on at Abu Ghraib?  I've seen pictures
of people being sexually humiliated and undergoing psychological
torture (the man standing on a box).  I've seen a picture of those MP
clowns grinned over a dead body, but no proof that they killed him.

And I know the abysmal lack of veracity of people like steve, Bill
Ewing and Morrissey Breen.  So when they claim people were "tortured
and killed", or that little boys were sodomised, etc etc, I tend to
disbelieve them.  Let them post news reports from Reuters, AP, the BBC
or like that - not from some hate-America blog - to support their
claims.
