Robert Scheer: Thread of Abuse Runs to the Oval Office
Phony justifications for war led to brutal intelligence-gathering techniques

May 11, 2004 – Someone's lying – big-time – and neither Congress nor the media have begun to scratch the surface. Clearly we now know enough to stipulate that the several low-ranking alleged sadists charged in the Iraq torture scandal did not control the wing of the prison in which they openly and proudly did the devil's work.

That power was in the hands of high-ranking U.S. military intelligence officers who established abusive conditions that were condemned by the Red Cross in a complaint to U.S. authorities well before the horrid incidents that recently shocked the nation.

1. Bush is guilty as hell...
He is personally responsible for the entire mess, for every dead American, Iraqi and others.

He will burn in hell for what he has done.
