Prisoner rape
In 2004, Antonio Taguba, a major general
in the U.S. Army, wrote in the Taguba
Report that a detainee had been sodomized
with "a chemical light and perhaps a
broomstick."
Sistematic torture
The US commander in charge of military
jails in Iraq, Major General Geoffrey Miller,
has confirmed that a battery of 50-odd
special "coercive techniques" can be used
against enemy detainees. The general, who
previously ran the prison camp at
Guantanamo Bay, said his main role was to
extract as much intelligence as possible.

“Our country had an obligation to
treat them right. We didn't do that.
That was wrong. To those Iraqis who
were mistreated by members of U.S.
armed forces, I offer my deepest
apology. It was un-American. And it
was inconsistent with the values of
our nation.”
United States Secretary of Defense
Donald Rumsfeld
