From what I have seen, the "tortures and abuses" committed by our troops at Abu Ghraib fell far short of "horrific."

Would you recommend Abu Ghraib treatment to the arrested American suspects?

I do not find wearing stripes with plaid to be horrific torture and abuse, but I still would not want it to be imposed on all prisoners....

No. The breakdown in military discipline was deplorable.

That said, our people were guilty of humiliating prisoners, not mass murder. Anyone who cannot tell the difference is delusional.

I would recommend the Abu Ghraib treatment for blame America first crackpots like Paul Craig Roberts.
