A Most Convenient Escape

Turns out a “top al Qaeda operative” escaped before he could testify to “abuse” by an American soldier. Of course, I believe it. No doubt in my mind. I mean, it’s not like they would lie about something like that, right? Permit a prisoner to escape or hide him (or worse) to prevent more embarassing revelations of torture. No, they just wouldn’t do that. That’s not what Americans – who live in a democracy and value freedom – do.

[Update: More misinformation…sorry, I meant details… about the escape here.]
