Now, Ms. Swords, I'm not sure you can answer this or how much of it you can answer, but with respect to the International Committee of the Red Cross and their standard operating procedures, it would seem to me that if the ICRC had a serious concern about torture and that sort of thing, they would not have been passing those concerns to somebody at Mr. Colvin's level, but they would be passing those concerns at a much higher level, directly to the state, as it were. I don't know whether you can comment on their SOPs or not.
