Wikileaks exposes FRAGO 242, an order that no investigation of torture of Iraqi detainees would be performed except under extraordinary circumstances requiring high level initiation. Ignoring torture is a Standard Operating Procedure in Iraq , this is a specific order coming from a high level of the U.S militaries which means that they know that these violations are comitted against Iraqi civilians , and when these violations are comitted they turn a blind eye.
Note : This policy has been witnessed by Peter Maass, a journalist who was working for the New York Times when he was given a unique and rare access to the elite Ministry of Interiors special commandos .
