"Are you saying that Captain Reese is going to testify that General Sanchez was there and saw this going on?" asked Capt. John McCabe, the military prosecutor.


"That's what he told me," Shuck said. "I am an officer of the court, sir, and I would not lie. I have got two children at home. I'm not going to risk my career."

1. the house of cards crumbles

this administration is like a shakespearrean tale of misdeeds uncovered. each lie supporting the next until finally they crumble and the tell tale heart beats loudly until someone shouts, "enough enough. we knew. we were all in on it."

2. Guess it would be hard to give up your good name.

Looks like Powell is trying to do it and it may work, He is a likable man. I am talking about the War about him. On the prison thing----- I do not know any one that thinks these low ranks thought this up.It is also hard for me to think a General would give the go ahead unless he was pushed into by even higher ups. Course that is if he cares for the men under him, as how will they be treated if they were POW, comes into this.

7. Can't the defense request Sanchez's travel schedule...

and pinpoint when he was at the prison and compare that with the time frame in which the torture of Iraqi detainees was occurring? In one of the articles, it states that Karpinski says Sanchez visited the prison three times which, according to her, was unusual.
