I think the damage

Posted by Deborah on 10/11/2005, 10:47:46, in reply to "How might that affect"
on that front has already been done.

Not that our guys have ever been treated as well as we treat those we capture, until recently we at least had the moral highground and could appeal to international law to try and mitigate bad treatment of our own captured troops.

With the new Bush doctrine in place, wereby we're flying captured 'enemy combatants' to countries that practice torture, holding them as ghost captives, having torture ships in international waters etc, we no longer hold that particular piece of high ground. And I think our captured men and women are the ones who will pay the price.

We have become what we fight against. Abu Garib was the disney version of what's going on these days.
