New allegations of torture
Human Rights watch has a new report on abuses of prisoners by the 82nd Airborne in Afghanistan and at FOB Mercury in Afghanistan.
The report presents evidence that torture of prisoners began early on, involved "Other Government Agencies" (i.e., was ordered from the top) and continued after Abu Ghraib. Oh-- and that people involved in torture knew that lots of their charges were innocent of having done anything against US troops.
