Truth, justice and the American way

Glenn Greenwald makes a telling point today. We have the gal to hold a man (David Hicks) for five years in Guantanamo without trial, torture him, finally put him in front of a kangaroo court where he is forced to confess his crimes and sign a statement he wasn't tortured in order to get out and return to Australia, and then waive his signed statement in front of the press as proof of what great guys we are while still condemning the Iranians for capturing 15 British sailors, holding them for a couple of weeks, getting signed statements from them of their guilt, parading the statements in front of the press and then releasing the Brits. Ahhhh, it's nice to always be on the side of truth, justice, and the American way!

This sort of thing puts "Bong hits 4 Jesus" into perspective, huh?

One's ability to separate the military establishment from The Regime, and thereby to retain a certain respect for the former, is seriously weakened by this sort of thing.
