Torture in Iraq

I look forward to the wingnuts's attempts to explain away the latest example of torture in Iraq in the blogosphere over the next few days (a la Ann Althouse's "defense" of José Padilla's treatment). After all - what's wrong with denying habeas corpus to an American citizen working in Iraq for the U.S.? I mean, if he was in the place he was ratting out for illegal arms sale, he MUST have been involved, right?
