I guess you aren't aware that's exactly what the U.S. forces are doing in Iraq. Want to guess how many people are in custody without their family knowing where they are? How many summarily executed on the street?

We're not behaving a whole lot differently in Iraq than Saddam did, at least as a lot of people who live there see it. But to know that you have to be able to get news from something other than U.S. media.
