Oh, that Jack Idema!

More proof that that the truth will be free, so why lie in the first place and make yourself look bad. It only weakens the credibility of your new story.

The US Department of Defense has admitted having contact with a former US soldier, Jonathan Idema, charged in Afghanistan with torturing civilians.
But it says it rejected Mr Idema's offer to work together in capturing terror suspects in Afghanistan.

Mr Idema - who was arrested by Afghan security agents in July - says his operation was approved by the US.

He and two other US citizens are being tried for torture, kidnapping and running a private jail in Kabul.

This comes after the flat out denial of contact with him. Does it mean anything? Who knows. That's what trials are for.
