And quite frankly, who needs rule of law, serious investigations and fair court trials in a Soviet-esque state? Investigating abuse is probably overrated anyway and when has the Army ever lied or tried to cover up? As long as we don't orchestrate kangaroo courts we should be fine. Ooops.
Internal Army documents about the Iraqi's capture on Jan. 4, 2004, and his subsequent interrogation at an unspecified facility at or near Baghdad International Airport were not reviewed, the records show, because investigators were told they had been lost in a computer malfunction.
The investigation records were among thousands of pages of records released by the ACLU which obtained them from the Defense Department as part of a Freedom of Information request.
The documents include numerous references to investigators being blocked from a thorough investigation, yet the matter was closed a final time on June 17, 2005, by the Army Criminal Investigation Command.
