Do you have a link to that thread? Didn't realize this was a dupe and there are probably some pretty comments there.

From another thread: " Zoo keepers at Port Lympne wild animal park in Kent are having to learn French to communicate with the baboons which had been transferred from Paris zoo."

No doubt I'll be flamed......but I don't see why this woman is in jail and Karpinski (?) is out there walking around.

This happened on her watch and this unsupervised soldier is punished so severely.

The damage was done to America by our own media.

Graner is the accused ringleader in the
Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal.

Puuuuleaze!! A specialist as the "ringleader"? This is such crap....I still want to know where the sergeants & LTs were. And what cell is Karpinski in? Or is she still using the "but I'm just a girl" defense. Personally, I think the whole incident was crap, but if the army was going to go after one, they should have gone after ALL of them...

These people shouldn't be serving time for this.

The guard unit headquartered in my hometown was transferred into Abu Ghraib a few days before the story broke. They were attacked by mortars almost every day from the time the reports appeared in the media until the time they left Iraq. According to the soldiers I've spoken with, a lot of these mortar rounds landed among the prisoner population, because they had a lot of the non-terrorist offenders housed in tents in various courtyards within the prison complex.

These people put our troops in danger from combat that wouldn't have happened otherwise and got Iraqis killed and wounded because they wanted to indulge their playground bully urges and/or get their rocks off. They deserve prison, in fact, they deserve lots of prison. So have a nice cup of shut the hell up, because you have no idea in the world what their stupidity, malice and perversion have cost us.

As despicable as Karpinski is, I have no problem imagining this all going on without any officer's knowledge. I've talked to troops who were at Abu Ghraib, and they said it would be so easy to keep up appearances even if an officer showed up at an inopportune time that no one outside the conspiracy can be held responsible.

True, but the soldiers who did the deeds should still be punished. They just should have been punished quietly.

Not that I'm defending Karpinski, who is a moral moron, but please see my post 31 for an outline of the consequences of Graner and England's actions, and 33 for a note on why the Sergeants and Lieutenants are not part of the problem. I can elaborate on that if necessary.

The young reservist was reaching for a pan with chicken when grease splattered on her neck and chest,

She was probably lighting a smoke with the burner the pan was cooking on.

I think both Lindie and Gardner are made for each other and to think they have to raise a child...gives me chills. I mean the girl acted like a complete idiot when talking with the media and that I believe that she was one of the main reason this story went as far as it did. If there were some articulate, educated and prettier looking females, I really believe this would not have gone as far. People were upset that she presented herself in such a horrible way. I listened to her talking to the press and it was hardly understandable.
