'ANTI-ISLAM' GEN. UNDER FIRE
May 12, 2004 -- WASHINGTON - The Army general under investigation for anti-Islamic remarks has been linked by officials to the Iraqi prisoner-abuse scandal.
A Senate hearing into the abuse of Iraqi prisoners was told yesterday that Lt. Gen. William Boykin, an evangelical Christian under review for saying his God was superior to Allah, briefed a top Pentagon civilian official last summer on ways interrogators could gain more intelligence from Iraqi prisoners.
Critics have suggested those recommendations amounted to a senior-level go-ahead for the sexual and physical abuse of prisoners.
Congressional aides and Muslim groups said any involvement by Boykin could spark new rage among Arabs and Muslims overseas.
One Senate aide, who asked not to be identified, said any involvement by Boykin could be explosive. "Even if he knew about the abuse, that would be a big deal," he said. Post Wire Services
