what the heck?!?
This isn't a blog about politics, and there are plenty of sources out there trashing America's methods in our current conflicts, but this excerpt from an article in time really blew me away.
"It may have been a measure of how detainees are treated that when Army Specialist Sean Baker played the role of an inmate in a 2003 training exercise, he says he was beaten so badly by MPs, who did not know he was one of them, he now has seizures. The Army is investigating the incident, and Baker has filed suit against the government, seeking damages for his injuries".
It may have been a measure...? What is everyone smoking?

Nevermind the beating. I understand they also flushed "Ultimate Spiderman #39. The Gold Edition" down the toilet right in front of him. Allegedly this is Baker's favorite comic book. What gives?
The fact that they have located this prison on Guantanamo Bay, a high-security base on an island with a communist country Americans cannot easily travel to, speaks volumes of the administration's position on this.
