The Knight Report:
* Iraq's Interior Minister says that nobody was tortured in Baghdad, and if they were, it was because everybody arrested was a terrorist;
* nearly a dozen nations are now investigating the clandestine CIA transport of prisoners to secret international torture centers; and
* the Bush administration's war in Iraq is getting opposition in Congress, where a pro-war Republican says it is costing too much, and a pro-war Democrat says it is time to get out immediately. Robert Knight
