Thought I was done with blogging for this day but found one last headline that makes me feel sick: Son mistreated to make father talk.
The analyst said the teenager was stripped naked, thrown in the back of an open truck, driven around in the cold night air, splattered with mud and then presented to his father at Abu Ghraib, the prison at the center of the scandal over abuse of Iraqi detainees.
Upon seeing his frail and frightened son, the prisoner broke down and cried and told interrogators he would tell them whatever they wanted, the analyst said.
And what would have happened to the son if the father had not broken down? We’re supposed to be better than this.
