Okay, We Can All Agree That This Is Bad, Right? Right?

I know Newsweek made the whole thing up about anyone doing anything bad to or around detainees in our Glorious War On Terror, because Scott McClellan is an honorable man, and would never try to mislead the American Public like that. So that's why I find this story a bit troubling. Check out this telling paragraph right here:
Several hours passed before an emergency room doctor finally saw Mr. Dilawar. By
then he was dead, his body beginning to stiffen. It would be many months before
Army investigators learned a final horrific detail: Most of the interrogators
had believed Mr. Dilawar was an innocent man who simply drove his taxi past the
American base at the wrong time.
Most of the interrogators. Do you know what that means? That means they knew he probably didn't know anything, and they killed him anyway. I can't wait to hear what the Conservo-blogs have to say about it. I'm sure they'll want to take time out from condemning Newsweek for a poorly sourced story about other cases of prisoner abuse to speak out against this. And by this, I of course mean the fact that someone decided to tell about it, not that it happened. Wank away, Freepers.
