A Spanish Inquisition

Only recently have the leaks about corruption in highest levels of government started flowing everywhere. Just another example of a story that could not be documented do to lack of information.
He was imprisioned for six months - tortured - because, as neighborhood mayor,
Quote:
he loudly complained to the military, human rights organizations and the news media about soldiers' dumping garbage on a local soccer field.
We only know of his story because Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch are slowly getting to a truth that George Jr hopes you forget. Clearly enlistedmen planned to torture prisoners. They brought dog collars and knowledge of how to shock people without killing them. George Jr had absolutely no relationship to Major General Miller who was transfered by the administration from Guantanamo to not teach torture in Abu Ghraid. General Miller is seeking early retirement from the military - maybe to get out and get his pension before more leaks document his relationship to both torture and the George Jr administration?
