WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld offered his "deepest apology" Friday for the abuse of some Iraqi prisoners by their U.S. captors, and he warned lawmakers on Capitol Hill that graphic videos and more pictures of the mistreatment are likely to surface.
"There are other photos -- many other photos -- that depict incidents of physical violence towards prisoners, acts that can only be described as blatantly sadistic, cruel and inhuman," Rumsfeld told the Senate Armed Services Committee. "And I am advised there also are videos of these actions."

Tonights news (was on multiple channels). Red cross says that it had been presenting reports to US officials since March 2003 on what it called 'systematic abuse'.
Also tonight al-Sadr called for pres Bush to face Iraq justice over the abuse (god we needed this like a hole in the head. al-Sadr having a case to make).
