| By cosmici RAW STORY: New Army documents released by the American Civil Liberties Union today reveal that Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez ordered interrogators to "go to the outer limits" to get information from detainees. The documents also show that senior government officials were aware of abuse in Iraq and Afghanistan before the Abu Ghraib scandal broke... ... "These documents are further proof that the abuse of detainees was widespread and systemic, and not aberrational," said Amrit Singh, a staff attorney with the ACLU... [*] -New White House spokesperson Tony Snow denied that torture was ordered by the military staff. "It's just military talk kinda like Alpha, Bravo, Charlie. Going to the 'outer limits' refers the TV show by that name which was on ABC. Therefore Outer Limits was code for Already Been Caught. So they're just saying the detainees were already caught. You know they could have said 'go to the Twilight Zone' which premiered on CBS in which case that have meant 'Could Be Spies.' " | | | | |
