Touche

From an article in the Guardian about allegations of Iraqi police officers abusing prisoners:

"...Nashwan Ali - who said his nickname was Big Man - said: 'A US MP asked
me this morning what police division I was in. I said I was in criminal
intelligence. The American asked me why we had beaten the prisoners. I
said we beat the prisoners because they are all bad people. But I told him
we didn't strip them naked, photograph them or fuck them like you did.'"
