ABU GHRAIB REVISITED

UPDATE: Crooks & Liars has a video clip of Hersh on CNN.

Seymour Hersh has a new piece about Abu Ghrab in the New Yorker and you can find excerpts at Talking Points Memo and ThinkProgress. Hersh's interview of Gen. Taguba reveals that many flag officers are corrupt and they have failed our country. That is also the point that LTC Yingling made in his Armed Forces Journal article and is something I have been thinking about for a couple of months. The Rumsfeld/Cheney cabal has had 6 years to nominate their "men" to high posts and their is no reason to believe they picked honorable men.
