Rummie: there's been a good deal of discussion in recent days. Happened on his watch. He has to bring them to justice and make sure it never happens again.
He "feels terrible." those Iraqis are human beings. Offers "deepest apology" to those affected. Fundamentally unAmerican.
Regrets damage done to the honorable servicement and women. Wished he could have conveyed to President, Congress and American people the gravity of the situation before it came out.
Should have seen anguish on his departments faces when they first saw the pictures. Notes brought to light by other military personnel.

This is all bulls**t. There's nothing to apologize for. The prisoners there were sub-human scum and got what they deserved.
My main objection in the first place was that it appeared to be random sadism- if it was for interrogatory purposes the soldiers in question did nothing wrong, neither did anyone else.
To me, from the quotes I've hard, this sounds like a culuturally astute method.

The prisoners are NOT human beings. We saw the Iraqi's gleeful faces when the American contractors were burned and hung on the bridge.
Never forget!

Found another area of concern:
Regrets not informing president.
Seeking recompense to those who suffered at hands of these military members. It's the right thing to do.
