Prisoner treatment in Iraq

Like most people I have been shocked (but not entirely surprised) by the revelations about the treatment of some prisoners held in Iraq under US and UK control. I have a lot to say about this, but simply will not have the time until at least tomorrow and possibly Wednesday to do the subject justice, so prefer to 'hold fire' lest what I do write appears glib - and this is a subject where glibness is definitely to be avoided.
