05/26/2004 Entry: "CACI Torture Contract."

It turns out CACI's torture contract is maintained by Department of the Interior. Why's Interior in Iraq ? A quick check of their mission statement should clear things up lickity split :

The Department of the Interior (DOI) is the nation’s principal conservation agency. Our mission is to protect America’s treasures for future generations, provide access to our nation’s natural and cultural heritage, offer recreation opportunities, honor our trust responsibilities to American Indians and Alaska Natives and our responsibilities to island communities, conduct scientific research, provide wise stewardship of energy and mineral resources, foster sound use of land and water resources, and conserve and protect fish and wildlife. The work that we do affects the lives of millions of people; from the family taking a vacation in one of our national parks to the children studying in one of our Indian schools.

(I know the 'lickity split' link has nothing to do with the post, but it was too good to pass up.)
