More Ignorant Torture Slander

Here is an excerpt that needs no elaboration or analysis:

Yesterday Chris Matthews interviewed Tony Lagouranis, a former U.S. army interrogator in Iraq. Lagouranis has been making the rounds on all the left-wing media outlets peddling his story of the U.S. military as out of control torturers.

In the interview, Lagouranis smears the 24th Marines and its commanding officer, Colonel Ron Johnson, saying the Marines were “consistently” punching, kicking, and breaking subdued prisoners’ bones. He goes on to say he knows this to be true from talking with the prisoners and from his own observations, though he concedes “I never saw this.” [emphasis added]

And we all know how scrupulously honest our bloodthirsty Islamist enemies are, don't we?

Has Lagouranis signed his deal as al Jazeera's U.S. correspendent yet? Must be only a matter of time....
