Nearly 100 people have died in US custody in Iraq. One presumes that the Pentagon will be proclaiming that there was a severe epidemic of colic in Iraqi prisons. Or, perhaps, that all the deaths were natural -- caused perhaps by asthma. Of the 98 who died, 34 are 'suspected or confirmed' homicides. What, one wants to ask, did the other 60 die of? Were they struck by lightning? Or did they die of joy that they were being democratically tortured?
