Andrew Sullivan writes in Cognitive Dissonance Watch: "It's especially telling since we dismiss the statements of the captive British soldiers as the fruit of coercion even though their treatment was like a bed and breakfast compared to what has taken place at Abu Graib, Camp Cropper, Bagram or Gitmo. Why are we unable to make the same assumptions about other coerced testimony?"
In all honesty, this is the first thing I thought of when the British soldiers explained their captivity, and I've heard nothing about this in the media.
