Pulitzer Prize Winner in U.S. Custody Without Charges for One Year by Scott Horton (Harper's Magazine)

Scott Horton in Harper's writes Pulitzer Prize-winning Photojournalist Completes One Year in U.S. Military Custody in Iraq

"A Pulitzer Prize-winning war photographer is seized by U.S. Forces and locked up for one year. The U.S. refuses to bring any charges. When American military spokesmen suggest their 'suspicions' in interviews with the media, virtually all of them are exposed as false within a matter of weeks. No matter. He is still held."

I wrote about this in November when it was just 7 months in prison. I am just completely disgusted by this. Andrew Sullivan comments "And we know Cheney's official response to those of us who dissent. We can go fuck ourselves."
