First of all abu-gharib was not what we are discussing. That was a bunch of assholes violating army regulations, and they were punished, and thier superiors were punished. I love when people try association tricks. We are talking about the mandated use of coercive interrogation on a select few leaders of a terrorist organization operating outside the rules of warfare.
And just because you got one point of info by not using intensive techniques, doesnt mean you will never get more information by using them.
Petreus is following the line an army commander has to follow. His concern is his own troops, not intelligence gathering. Thats why you leave the wet work to the CIA. thats what they are there for.
You were the one who went off on the tangent. But the torture they used in Iraq was systematic and was used at more than one prison.
So what. You progressive hypocrits have been torturing us for decades.
Ah man.....so have the pseudo-cons who think they are funny or witty......
