#2 Gotta love Ben Nighthorse Campbell's comment...how in the hell did people like this get in our Army? Well, it couldn't be b/c of the sexcapades going on in the "oral" office under previous admin. Or the feminazis' insistence that women be on the front line. Ya gotta wonder...who in their right freakin' mind would put a female soldier in as a prison guard full of hardened criminals (remember this wing of the prison was for the hardest criminals) and not expect some kind of sexual aura to overcome the area?

#3 The orders, came from "persons in my chain of command." She was a private! Everyone was in her 'chain of command'! She is covering her ass! About time if what is said about the photos is true!

No one.

She wasn't assigned to the prison; she was a paper-pusher handling admissions and records-keeping. Her boyfriend was assigned to the cell block, and she went in there to be with him.

No one ordered her to be there; she was there voluntarily.

#6 RC: Good point! This girl's lookin' more and more like a looser and that she was out for a good time instead of being a real soldier.

#8 I read this and thought...
"This sounds more like a girls gone wild video than an atrocities tape."

#9 Gotta wonder who up her chain of command ordered her to have sex for the cameras. Or is her other story a bunch of crap. Odds are they knew she'd be willing to do anything so when they got around to abusing the prisoners in a sexual way her boyfriend called her up. The orders were probably suggestions from the cameraman and not actual orders.

#10 Feinstein is right to be disgusted. Nothing like this ever took place in San Francisco while she was mayor.

#12 Can anybody surmise just what purpose was served by having England doing this in front of the prisoners ?

Or, is it likely that this was completely done at the personal volition of herself and a couple of others (to make some money in some porno subgenre ?)

#13 If I hear "but it was all ordered by people in my chain of command" one more time I'm going to have to get a new skepticism meter.

I thought the batteries were dead in this one, but then I turned it right-side-up.

#14 Actually, I'm trying to figure what our troops diddling each other has to do with the abuse of Iraqi bad guys. Or was this on company time?

Whether it was on company time or not, she was apparently violating the fraternization rules, with multiple partners, without birth control, and in a war zone... any way you look at it, this sounds like a massive breach of discipline. Of course she'll say it's because the evil MI people and Rumsfeld (who they'll allege was watching the whole thing from his Pentagon office on CCTV) used their mind control rays on her...

But my point is, if she and her codefendants were already committing these sorts of breaches of discipline for personal amusement, this would tend to reinforce the hypothesis that they were not conducting their abuses of the prisoners because of orders from the chain of command or attached MI officers, but were doing it for kicks.

(Oh, and the fact that she wasn't even cleared to be in the area also would tend to reinforce the hypothesis as well. It would tend to violate the sort of informantional segregation intelligence units have _historically_ practiced, AFAICT.)

Just my $.02.

#15 Check out the Stanford experiment which shows how easily thiings can go bad in a prison situation.
