"No. Why? It's a prison that we spent more than $100 million building."
I wonder how much the Reich-ministries paid for Buchenwal or Auschwitz.

Interesting that the new government doesn't care all that much about the prison and what happened, yet the article still talks about how the abuse seriously undermined US eforts.

We didn't tear down Buchenwald or Auschwitz. They still have a purpose.

Note that the new president of Iraq brushes off the American "torture" in the prison, which Reuters is so anxious to bring back into view. Instead he sees it as the place where Saddam tortured and murdered his political victims.

Maybe parts of it could be turned into a memorial for dead Iraqis who were put through Saddam's regime of rape and torture. I'm sure that would please Reuters (NOT).
