ABU AL KHASIB, Iraq (CNN) -- A torture chamber equipped with hooks hanging from ceilings and an on-site electrocution room has been found in the basement of an Iraqi police station, an embedded reporter with the BBC reports.
The reporter said the British Royal Marines from Alpha Company 40 Commando entered the facility -- home to Saddam Hussein's dreaded internal security police -- looking for clues about local militia groups.

He said he was told that an interrogator would use the tires to stand on, while water was poured into the room and the prisoner electrocuted. Animals...

Gitmo POW's get meals and shelter and the warm sun all the time. it would be a Hilton compared to what Saddam does.

Wait a second... I thought the Democrats said the torture chambers were just right-wing propoganda. I am confused.

LOl but seriously the camp is at Mccalla hanger and near one of the most beautiful beaches I have seen.
To: JohnHuang2
I am shocked- just shocked by this revelation! I cannot believe this, not in Iraq! No, no, no. Next thing you know they're going to be telling us they found some sort of chemical or biological weapons or something.

Pass the #60 sunscreen! (not an issue for Afghans, I guess). Where's the nearest Catholic Church? :-)

How can this be? Islam is a religion of peace, and Iraq has nothing to do with terrorism. < / sarcasm >

Do you really think torture is funny? Get a clue. This is not fun and games.

:-) Sewing supplies, library, no diapers to change? Silence? (Shade?) I guess it would depend on how many per bathroom!
I'm kidding, pretty much. I love my family! It's just that in two weeks I get my first vacation in 7 years, and I'm getting a little loopy :-).

I'm sorry, I think our wires crossed. I was referring to the situation at Guantanamo Bay.
Are you suggesting that the U.S. is torturing detainees?
I certainly don't think anything in Iraq is funny. Those people are filth.
Sorry about the confusion.
