“Take the worse case and multiply it several times over.” – Senator Ron Wyden, D-Ore. on the pictures of abuse and humiliation from Abu Ghraib.

How much worse? I have, like millions of others, seen selected pictures in newspapers, television channels, and a larger selection on the net. My stomach churned when I saw them. And I really thought that there could be nothing worse than this in terms of what one human being can do to another to humiliate, abuse and torture them.

And now, there is a US senator, no less, telling us that this is just the tip of the ice berg. The mind boggles at the thought.
