George Bush's America

Lies in Iraq (link courtesy mathew)

But there is one other thing that I haven't mentioned yet that is also beyond a doubt. No matter what happened on that bridge, the soldiers were ordered to lie about it. And they were ordered to lie about it not just by their team leader, but by the entire leadership of their unit, from their company commander all the way up to their battalion commander.

How do we know this? Because at the Article 32 hearing only 2 weeks ago, their commanders, under grant of immunity, said so.

So, let's get this straight: military commanders receive immunity for ordering those under their command to lie in order for them to testify against the soldiers that they ordered to lie? That's what it sounds like.
