"The picture that emerges is of a brass-knuckled quest for information"

This assertion is specifically contradicted by the article, which gives no evidence of physical harm being inflicted by the U.S.

So they were uncomfortable for awhile? That is not the same as "brass knuckles." Nor is it anywhere near Saddam's vats of acid.

This assertion is specifically contradicted by the article, which gives no evidence of physical harm being inflicted by the U.S.

This is what I'm trying to point out as well.

The article clearly states that there is no evidence of torture being used, yet consumes many column-inches insinuating that this must be the case.

The article is a meretricious hack job.
