Members of the Royal Regiment of Wales are accused of beating the marine surveyor they arrested in a round-up of Ba’ath Party suspects in Iraq in November 2003.
The 48-year-old man will bring his personal injury claim against the Ministry of Defence in the High Court this year. He accuses soldiers of breaking one of his ribs, abusing him with racial taunts and forcing him to stand all night, half-naked in an interrogation block.

Bad news continues to pile up around Don Rumsfeld like garbage at a land fill. The latest blast came from an unlikely source, The Army Times�, which conducted a poll showing that 64% of enlisted men think Rumsfeld should tender his resignation immediately.
It would be impossible to find a more conservative publication than the Army Times or a more compelling reason for stepping down. Still, the recalcitrant Rumsfeld shows no sign of caving in or loosening his withered grip on the levers of power.
