Clarke calls U.S. treatment of Iraqi prisoners "war crime"

Clarke calls U.S. treatment of Iraqi prisoners "war crime" --Former White House terrorism czar Richard Clarke called the mistreatment of Iraqi prisoners at Abu Ghraib a "war crime" and again blasted the Bush regime for actions that he said are intensifying the threat of terrorism.

"We have a major problem and we have not improved it over the last three years," Clarke said Thursday at the annual conference of the American Civil Liberties Union. "It, in fact, has gotten worse."
