Cambone: We are dismayed by what took place.

A number of issues arose last Friday that were not fully engaged. First wants to say will give info to the best of their knowledge. Don't have all the facts yet.

Application of Geneva Convention: US acknowledges it applies; if soldiers were not aware, Sanchez had reminded them.

Miller said procedures were according to GC.

We are investigating why some soldiers at Abu Ghraib did not observe them. Terrorists do not abide by GC (re uniforms). Bush ordered that detainees be treated humanely and consistent with GC. Decision did not undermine GC.

Cambone: Miller laid out a series of recommendations to Gen. Sanchez. Would set conditions for interrogation. Underscored need for MP and MI to act so that one did not undermine the efforts of the other. Underscored the need for legal review of recommendations. Miller noted "safe, humane environment." Recommended MP under 205th MI brigade. Sanchez did so. Gave a senior officer responsibility. Did not give MI authority over MP operations.

That scene from Dr. Strangelove keeps playing in my mind.

I am very dismayed.

I am as dismayed as you.

No, I am even more dismayed than you.

Excuse me, I can measure my dismayal level. It is much higher than yours.

Wrong, my dismay cannot even be measured.
