Human Rights Watch accused the United States on Wednesday of committing war crimes in Iraq by demolishing homes of suspected members of the Iraqi resistance and by arresting the relatives of wanted Iraqis. The military is denying the charges. But a week ago the Washington Post reported that in Samarra, U.S. forces blew up the house of a man, Talab Saleh, they accused of orchestrating attacks against U.S. troops. The U.S. also arrested the man’s wife and brother and said they would remain jailed until his surrender. The military has also been holding for six weeks the wife and daughter of Saddam Hussein’s former top lieutenant Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri. They were both arrested without charges.
