Defense Department Refuses to Turn Over Abuse Photographs

"The government is raising newfound reasons for withholding records to which the public has an undeniable right," said Amrit Singh, a staff attorney with the ACLU. "Instead of releasing these records and holding officials accountable for detainee abuse, the government now seeks to shield itself from public scrutiny by filing these reasons in secret."

Secrets, secrets, and more secrets. When are we going to start demanding government accountability? I don't mean just by letting organizations like the ACLU to speak for us, I mean, we ALL need to work to put a stop to an ever increasingly secretive government.
