Spot the spin word

Wall Street Journal online today:

[Regarding Abu Ghraib] If a civilized society fails to establish and enforce decent standards for the treatment of criminals, civilization itself is imperiled.

And what about when a civilized society labels people as criminals without any due process to make this determination?

UPDATE: This piece of spin made it to the Senate floor. Apparently to the disgust of John McCain.
