In a new ABC story, a Marine has testified under oath to rthe existence of serious abuses at Gitmo. ABC reports<\/a>:
\n“In a sworn affidavit filed with the Pentagon Inspector General, Sgt. Cerveny says she met several Navy prison guards at a club on the base where, over drinks, they described harsh physical abuse.<\/p>\n

“‘One sailor specifically said, “I took the detainee by the head and smashed his head into the cell door,”‘” Sgt. Cerveny tells ABC News in an exclusive interview.<\/p>\n

“She says she was ‘shocked’ to hear several guards from different parts of the camp speak openly of mistreating prisoners.”<\/p>\n

The ABC account reports “Sgt. Cerveny says, in the end, she felt a duty to report what she heard, even if she might be accused of betraying the ranks. ‘What it comes down to for me, morals and simple rights and wrongs. And I don’t think a uniform changes that.'”<\/p>\n

Sgt. Cerveny demonstrates uncommon integrity and moral strength, dwarfing that of Pres. Bush, “Christian” Right leaders, a majority of US Congressmen and Senators, and the many US citizens who still support the Republican Party’s staying in office.<\/p>\n
