Why Abu Ghraib Happened

Filed under: Iraq War — Jeffrey Yasskin @ 1:22 am

The New Yorker has an article on how and why the abuses at Abu Ghraib happened. The chain of responsibility leads all the way to Rumsfeld. <http://www.newyorker.com/printable/?fact/040524fa_fact> I’m not hopeful that these particular abuses are an impeachable offense for Bush, but they could lead to significant restrictions on black ops.

And then, another reaction.

Edit: Another very interesting article: <http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn/A28340-2004May14?language=printer> If it asks you to register, please comment and I’ll try to fix it.
