Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, responding to allegations that he fostered a climate that led to the prisoner-abuse scandal, said yesterday that the military's mistreatment of detainees was not as bad as what terrorists have done.Attribution
"Does it rank up there with chopping someone's head off on television?" he asked. "It doesn't."
What in the hell does THAT mean?
Is Donald Rumsfeld claiming that anything less than a public beheading is an acceptable way for the United States to treat its prisoners of war?
