GHOSTS OF ABU GHRAIB

GHOSTS OF ABU GHRAIB is an excellent HBO documentary about the atrocities at the military prison complex. One of the interview subjects quite appropriately points out that the torture techniques used were probably very similar to the ones Hussein used on his own people. It's an extremely depressing film to watch, but an important reminder of how this administration has eroded human rights to a point at which the US has lost international respect.

Yep, that's the one. I didn't realize it until you pointed it out. Nice to see the Kennedy family doing something good again.
