Torture isolated....to the BBC
 

Aparently, CNN got off without a scratch.

In two seperate Bases , BBC reporters are subjected to abuses similar to Iraqi "terrorists". But still, this cannot be the general rule.....can it?

Click your heels together three times and repeat after me:

"Those soldiers acted alone."
(click click click)

"Those soldiers acted alone."
(click click click)

"Those soldiers acted alone."
(click click click)


But seriously, abuse of the press is a new twist to this. I think this seems more like a few soldiers acting like jerks, though, not any organized attempt from the top-down to control the press.

While regrettable, I think these incidents pale in comparison to what appears to be organized assembly-line torture in the prisons.

Here is a much more detailed account of what allegedly happened written by Reuters:

That was reuters, not BBC staff.

But, once again, doesn't suprise me.
