Evidence continues to emerge that the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq was not the only jail where US troops abused and tortured Iraqi detainees. A U.S. officer investigating abuse in Iraq concluded that Iraqi prisoners were “systematically and intentionally mistreated” at a military base in Mosul. The officer also concluded that the U.S. troops in Mosul violated the Geneva Conventions. Fourteen months ago one detainee died at the base. Another had his jaw broken. In other cases, soldiers also had cigarette smoke blown into sandbags that were then used as hoods on the detainees. Nobody was court martialed over the abuse that took place in Mosul in December 2003 — at the same time similar abuse was being carried out at the Abu Ghraib prison near Baghdad
