This story was just released within the last few hours. I know it's been heard many times before, but when are these stories going to end? To not punish any of the military personnel involved is a clear case of acceptance toward the abuse of prisoners.
Pentagon Report Finds U.S. Forces Used Unapproved Interrogation Practices on Iraq Detainees
By LOLITA C. BALDOR
WASHINGTON Jun 17, 2006 (AP)— U.S. special operations forces fed some Iraqi detainees only bread and water for up to 17 days, used unapproved interrogation practices such as sleep deprivation and loud music and stripped at least one prisoner, according to a Pentagon report on incidents dating to 2003 and 2004.
The report concludes that the detainees' treatment was wrong but not illegal and reflected inadequate resources and lack of oversight and proper guidance rather than deliberate abuse. No military personnel were punished as a result of the investigation.
