The commentary reports on Taguba's assessment, and his opinion that Bush committed war crimes. I think he is suggesting putting something on the table.

I understand the story and agree with its premise but we need to go a further in understanding these crimes against humanity and the American Justice system. We come out on the opinion side a bit too much but I think in the end it does what it set out to do which is to shine a light on the corruption of our government vis a vis the Bush Adminstrations use of torture.

A very good article about what happens when you tell the truth.

Quite a good article, which should inspire every American to ask some pointed questions: "Do we Americans want to be known as a people who condone the use of torture in the interrogation of suspected terrorists and criminals?" Or "Should torture be restricted to extraordinary instances, the 'nuclear bomb hidden in New York City scenario'? Or, "Do we Americans want to disavow the use of torture in any and all circumstances?" We can no longer pretend that we have not systematically employed torture in our interrogation of prisoners; if we do not establish a formal policy on this issue and defend or position, I believe we will fully deserve opprobrium in the eyes of the world community.

Galloway is a highly respected writer on military topics. A friend of mine who is a retired Air Force officer frequently sends me Galloway's pieces to demonstrate how badly this administration has mistreated the troops. Seems to me this is just the latest example--making them take the rap for decisions they made, and for daring to try to expose their lies. Considering his long record of really supporting our troops, I can understand Galloway's obvious outrage.

Taguba has more honor in his little finger than Bush and the boys have in the whole damn White House and the Pentagon Pansies have exhibited in over 6 years. McClatchy prints more truth in one month than the party line prostitutes publish in a month.

Many people bandy about the word "Honor". Maj. Gen. Anthony Taguba practiced it and those who would attempt to silence him and others like him are a disgrace to American, whether they are in uniform or out of uniform...Ron
