Buried in the latest Gitmo stories

1) There was an "attempt cover up the abuses." That's the  NYT paraphrasing an agent's comments in the FBI memo.  The Times mentions it in passing and doesn't return.

2) "June 24" : That's the date an agent sent the chief of the FBI  a memo  describing "strangulation, beatings, placement of lit cigarettes into the detainees' ear openings and unauthorized interrogations."  That's two months after the Abu Ghraib scandal broke.

This  Newsweek piece seems to have some relevance again, eh?
