Our troops, the men and women over there in Afghanistan whom I visited last week, are of the same mind. We treat prisoners properly. We have now engaged the Afghan human rights commission to ensure that they can be monitored through the entire system.</p>",

Nos soldats, les hommes et les femmes qui sont l\u00e0-bas, en Afghanistan, et que j'ai rencontr\u00e9s la semaine derni\u00e8re, sont du m\u00eame avis. Nous traitons bien les prisonniers. Nous mettons maintenant \u00e0 contribution la commission afghane des droits de la personne pour assurer la surveillance des d\u00e9tenus au sein du syst\u00e8me. </p>"
