KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - The top U.S. general in Afghanistan on Tuesday promised "rapid action" on an internal review of Afghan jails where at least three prisoners have died, but said details of techniques used there will remain classified. snip

"I intend to take rapid action on any area of concern which he identifies," Lt. Gen. David Barno said of the report to be presented mid-June by his operational deputy Big. Gen. Charles Jacoby.

But Barno said he would reveal publicly only "some of the key conclusions."

Concern about U.S. jails in Afghanistan centers on the deaths of two detainees at the main Bagram facility, north of Kabul, in December 2002. Both were ruled homicides after autopsies found the men died from "blunt-force injuries."

1. Barno said he would reveal publicly only "some of the key conclusions."

In other words, anything embarrassing to the Pretender Regime will be "classified".
