But I think it's a statistical likelyhood that some of those "innocent" folks were treated pretty badly. There lies the problem.
Had you been falsly arrested (or even mistakenly) and subjected to rigorous interrogation, you probably wouldn't be much of a happy camper in the end either.

I believe the last part of your statement touches on one of the more important things to consider about this whole thing... yes the Red Cross and Taguba both site 70-90%. Now if you only take into account Abu whatever and it's roughly 7500 "detainees", how many were not anti-coalition or anti-US when they first were detained?
Now after the treatment they recieved how many are going to be now? Culturally the shaming that they or their family endured has to be avenged if they are to save some face... or on another level they now have a personally beef with the coalition.
