"Army jailers in Iraq, acting at the CIA's request, kept dozens of detainees at Abu Ghraib prison and other detention facilities off official rosters to hide them from Red Cross inspectors, two senior Army generals said Thursday.
The disclosure added to questions about the CIA's practices in Iraq, including why the agency took custody of certain Iraqi prisoners, what interrogation techniques it used and what became of the ghost detainees, including whether they were ever returned to military custody.
Military officials have said the CIA's practice of using Army-run prisons in Iraq to hide prisoners held for questioning violated military regulations and international law and led to "a loss of accountability at the prison."
So the CIA hid prisoners, possibly tortured them (why ELSE would they hide them?), and now no one knows who they are or where they are.
Just another day in Bush's America.
