<p>Here&#39;s <a href="http://battleland.blogs.time.com/2011/06/13/haunted-by-homicide-federal-grand-jury-investigates-war-crimes-and-torture-in-death-of-the-ice-man-at-abu-ghraib-and-other-alleged-cia-abuses/#ixzz1PGoL108L" target="_self">something</a> I didn&#39;t expect to see in print any time soon:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>&quot;the grand jury is conducting an investigation of possible violations of  federal criminal laws involving War Crimes (18 USC/2441), Torture (18  USC 243OA) and related federal offenses.&quot;</p>
</blockquote>
<p>One possible war crime under investigation is the murder-by-torture of the one individual killed in Abu Ghraib:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Unanswered questions surround the killing. According to official  reports, investigators were unable to examine key evidence because the  victim&#39;s blood was removed from the floor of the death cell on orders of  a U.S. military officer. The CIA allegedly removed a blood-stained hood  that had been placed over the victim&#39;s head. A CIA supervisor later  admitted he destroyed it. Immediately after the killing, CIA and  military personnel argued over who might be blamed; the corpse was iced  to slow decomposition and stored in a shower room overnight, before  being spirited away with an intravenous tube attached to one arm,  creating the impression that al-Jamadi was still alive.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Can the GOP actually defend this murder? I&#39;m sure they&#39;ll try.</p>
