Eric Schmitt and Douglas Jehl of the New York Times on Army Says C.I.A. Hid More Iraqis Than It Claimed:

Army jailers in Iraq, acting at the Central Intelligence Agency's request, kept dozens of detainees at Abu Ghraib prison and other detention facilities off official rosters to hide them from Red Cross inspectors, two senior Army generals said Thursday. The total is far more than had been previously reported.

An Army inquiry completed last month found eight documented cases of so-called ghost detainees, but two of the investigating generals said in testimony before two Congressional committees and in interviews on Thursday that depositions from military personnel who served at the prison indicated that the real total was many times higher.

Folks, this type of behaviour isn't liberation. Those at the CIA ordering military men and women to participate in this debacle need to spend some quality time in a federal facility.
