the Knight Report;

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

* 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
