Army probes abuse in Iraq prisons finds no widespread pattern
A high level Army review into interrogation practices in Iraq says there is no evidence that prisoner abuse by U S military police or intelligence officers is widespread. The investigation continues and six soldiers face possible courts martial while officials stress it is not a criminal probe of last fall’s Army Reserve MP company abuses. General Myers backs the conclusion that abuse is not widespread.

Myers denies Saddam era general leading Iraqi force
U S military chief Gen Richard Myers says Maj Gen Jassim Mohammed Saleh has not been given command of an Iraqi force that entered Fallujah after the siege. Baghdad officials are vetting his background and he has not been vetted yet. UN chief Annan cautions that crimes by some do not bar all from security roles.
