"However it seems perfectly acceptable to the Yanks when they do it to others..."

Perfectly acceptable to the Bush Administration, one might clarify, and they have few qualms about hiring other countries to do what they do not have the stomach to do.

Such comparisons are likely to reflect well on the current treatment of the British detainees by the Iranians who control them. Perhaps it's better to simply refer to the Iranians as "arseholes" as Strolling Johnny does above and forget about what the Bush Administration does.

Leave no stone unthrown in this debate!
