Bushamerica - CIA used sledgehammer handles on iraqi POWs |

Guardsman: CIA beat Iraqis with hammer handles
By Arthur Kane
Denver Post Staff Writer
CIA officials used a sledgehammer handle to beat various prisoners in
Iraq, and one official, whose name is classified, would often brag
about his abuse of prisoners, according to testimony in a closed
session of a military hearing.
The transcript, obtained this week by The Denver Post under a court
order, was of a March hearing to determine whether three Fort Carson
Army soldiers should stand trial for the death of Iraqi Maj. Gen. Abed
Hamed Mowhoush during an interrogation in 2003.
Chief Warrant Officer Jefferson Williams and Spec. Jerry Loper face
murder charges in the case.
A third soldier, Sgt. 1st Class William Sommer, has not had final
charges approved, though he also was involved in the March preliminary
Article 32 hearing.
Chief Warrant Officer Lewis Welshofer waived his hearing but is
charged with murder.
In the March hearing, Sgt. 1st Class Gerold Pratt of the Utah National
Guard said he saw classified personnel use a 15-inch wooden
sledgehammer handle to hit prisoners.
"They'd ask you a question, and if they didn't like it, they'd hit
you," he said.

Seems pretty crude considering the Iraqis have all those WMDs.

But not civilized enough to teach everyone how to form a sentence.
