US Brig. Gen. Janis Karpinski tells "The Signal" who she believes is responsible for the abuses at Abu Ghraib.
.
Signal: Who is — who are the responsible parties for the prisoner abuse at Abu Ghraib?
Karpinski: I don't know. I could tell you that — you want my opinion?
Signal: Yes.
Karpinski: Gen. Miller. [architect of Guantanamo Bay interrogation program, which he transferred to Iraq]; Gen. Fast. [responsible for intelligence in Iraq]; Gen. Sanchez. (Defense Undersecretary Stephen A.) Cambone. I don't know if it stops at Cambone, but I believe that he was orchestrating it, he was directing. And Gen. Karpinski. Because she didn't yell loud enough. She didn't object enough.
So — I — those soldiers are mine. I have an obligation to protect them, and I have an obligation to support them, and I have an obligation to make sure that there is not a miscarriage of justice.
