This claim has not been verified. The US government denied these claims. It started with George Herbert Walker Bush and it was a policy continued through eight years of the Clinton presidency and then brought us to this current disastrous course of action under the current Bush Administration.

Seymour (Sy) Myron Hersh (born April 8 1937) is an American Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist and author based in Washington D. His 2004 reports on the US military's mistreatment of detainees at Abu Ghraib prison gained much attention.
