I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure Marshall Law, Martial Law, Military Justice, Rules of Engagement, Bush's rules for torture, and the Geneva Convention are all different things.

The US torture chambers and Saddam torture chambers are however strikingly similar. The only difference is that death as a result of USA torture is always an accident and Saddam's torture victims we're deliberately killed.



Everyone has their own truisms such as "its always a bad idea to fight a land war in Asia".

Mine is " its always a bad idea to elect an entire family to the Presidency of the United States when the father was an industrialist for Hitler, The son was director of the most murderous regieme of the CIA and the grandson is an idiot stand in for his dad's friends."
