Saddam Hussein claims torture at U.S. hands

i gotta tell ya, i don't believe a damn thing any more... i don't care who's doing the talking...

Saddam Hussein has been beaten and tortured by the Americans, he has alleged at his trial in Baghdad.

"I have been beaten on every place of my body, and the signs are all over my body," he told the court.

Christopher Reid of the US Embassy in Baghdad rejected the allegation, telling CNN it was "absolutely bogus".
