"The levels of brutality that we've seen are truly horrifying, and I have to say, I underestimated the depravity," Perle says now...
It's truly stunning to hear Richard Perle, one of the chief motivators of the Iraq war, make such an admission. How does a thoughtful person underestimate the depravity of the sort of men who enjoy slowly lowering living prisoners, feet first, into plastic shredders?
What a disappointment Perle has shown himself to be. He can wash his hands in public but it won't remove the stains.
This guy shouldn't have been allowed within 500 miles of Washington, DC -- let alone find his way to a position with top-security clearance in the Pentagon.
