#3 Last I heard, cheerleaders tend to be clothed, more or less. Oh, and volunteers.

But I have to say that, while this was definitely abuse, certainly torment, I wouldn't call it torture. Which wouldn't stop me from voting for a minimum of stripping the man of all rank, condemning him to maximum allowable imprisonment at hard labour, to be followed by a dishonourable discharge, were I on the jury. As I recall, Graner had been dumped from the Armed Forces once, went on to become a prison guard -- where he had a habit of similarly abusing civilian prisoners -- and rejoined as a Reservist. Someone screwed up: with that record he should never have been allowed near Abu Ghraib.

Anyway, it seems to me that keeping each prisoner in a separate cell (and I understand that Abu G. had plenty of those) would function as an adequate method of prisoner control. Admittedly, I've only visited a prison once in my entire life, and never been responsible for controlling large numbers of putatively bad people, but still.

#9 "The Iraqi POW prefers kickin' up into a pyramid formation. Beau'iful plumage, eh?"
