There have been reports about the existence of an interrogation facility at Bagram that is run by Special Operations forces, but little has been disclosed about living conditions or interrogation methods there. Representatives of the International Committee of the Red Cross have not been permitted access to the detainees at this facility. The site has continued to operate under the terms of an executive order that Obama signed soon after taking office, which forced the closure of secret prisons run by the CIA but not those run by Special Operations forces.

Can't wait for this issue that should (if true) be settled by the commanding officer being reprimanded be treated as an indictment on the CiC by the media.

Surprising that Michael Moore is writing this salvo.
