November 17, 2005 -- Senior U.S. military officers aided and abetted torture and sexual molestation film and photo fest in Iraq. Former U.S. military intelligence agents have revealed to WMR that Gen. Ricardo Sanchez, the commander of coalition ground forces in Iraq, and Maj. Gen. Geoffrey Miller, the official who "Gitmo-ized" Abu Ghraib, told military interrogators at the very beginning of the U.S. occupation what the "deal was" regarding sexual humiliation and molestation. In late April 2003, Miller's first foray into Iraq was to Bilad Airbase, near Camp Anaconda, one of the first detention sites. One interrogator said that Miller was "one sick motherf****r," and that Sanchez engaged in a cover-up mode from the very beginning.

A name to remember.
Who
is Geoffrey Miller? (AmericanProgress.org)
From Human Rights News:
oh boy from Human Rights Watch: Maj. Gen. Miller, as commander at the tightly-controlled prison camp at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, should be investigated for his potential responsibility in the war crimes and acts of torture committed against detainees there. http://www.hrw.org/reports/2005/us0405/ In particular, when Gen. Geoffrey Miller, who oversaw the interrogation efforts at the U.S. military base at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, went to Iraq in order step up the hunt for “actionable intelligence,” he “brought to Iraq the secretary of defense’s policy guidelines for Guantánamo” “as a potential model” which he gave to Gen. Sanchez.63 These techniques formed the basis for the subsequent contradictory policy memos signed by Sanchez that contributed to detainee abuse.64 In addition, the Schlesinger report noted, when on September 14 “Sanchez signed a memorandum authorizing a dozen interrogation techniques beyond” the standard Army practice under the Geneva Conventions, including “five beyond those approved for Guantánamo,” he did so “using reasoning from the President’s Memorandum of February 7, 2002,” which he believed justified “additional, tougher measures.”65 And this in the notes: As noted to me by senior officers, certain senior figures whose conduct in this affair bears close scrutiny, were explicitly “protected” or “shielded” by withholding information from investigators or by providing security classifications which made such investigations possible. The individuals “shielded,” I was informed, included MG Geoffrey Miller, MG Barbara Fast, COL Marc Warren, COL Steven Bolz, LTG Sanchez and LTG William (“Jerry”) Boykin. In each case, the fact that these individuals possessed information on Rumsfeld’s involvement was essential to the decision to “shield” them.
Certainly lends credibility to Madsen's report today.
Doesnt it though?
