In other Iraq news, Army reservist Charles Graner was sentenced Friday to 10 years in military prison for his role in torturing Iraqi detainees at the Abu Ghraib prison. Graner was accused of stacking naked prisoners in a human pyramid and later ordering them to masturbate while other soldiers took photographs. He also allegedly punched one man in the head hard enough to knock him out, and struck an injured prisoner with a collapsible metal stick. Graner told jurors that he was ordered to abuse the detainees. So far none of Graner’s superiors have been charged with any crimes.
