US Hegemony Stops Earth's Rotation

Okay... not really. But this story from Reuters Amnesty Accuses U.S. of Rights Abuses in Iraq (via abcnews.com) is just about as far fetched.

Amnesty spokeswoman Judit Arenas Licea said some Iraqis had been forced to stand under the blistering sun for up to 48 hours in U.S.-run detention centers that lack proper sanitation and that relatives had no information on their plight.

Cool, we got the Earth to stop rotating for 48 hours! Man, we ROCK!
