Abu Gharib Diary Story

Day after day, the log's more than 50 pages of handwritten notes and observations describe a spartan prison where some inmates inexplicably vomited after meals, a detainee regularly covered himself in his own feces, and others sharpened toothbrushes into makeshift weapons. There were fights, attacks on soldiers and riots.

1. I posted about a week ago...
that Mark Levine on his radio show said over 2000 Iraqis have been killed in Abu Ghraib. He got this info from an extremely reliable source in the Pentagon, but the truth of it won't emerge anytime soon.

2. The damage that has been done
will take generations to heal.


John Kerry, you have much work to do.
