For daring to report illegal arms sales, Navy veteran Donald Vance says he was imprisoned by the American military in a security compound outside Baghdad and subjected to harsh interrogation methods.

Yeah, right..

Audit Shows $8.8B Missing in Iraq

I'm getting the distinct whiff of bullsh^t:

So Vance says he blew the whistle, supplying photos and documents and other intelligence to an FBI agent in his hometown of Chicago because he didn’t know whom to trust in Iraq.

For his trouble, he says, he got 97 days in Camp Cropper, an American military prison outside Baghdad that once held Saddam Hussein, and he was classified a security detainee.

Reading between the lines, what I want to know is: Who was that FBI agent posing as when Vance passed classified intel to him? Al Qaida? Iranians? Homegrown terrorists?

I'm glad the FBI is catching these guys.
