The prison scandal because of the damage it has done to our status as nation that values human rights.
Now when we say anything about China, Sudan or any other human rights violators they will point to Abu Ghraib and say clean up your own house first. In fact I heard a Libyan official say just that. He said (paraphrasing) "the US should have no voice when it comes to human rights."
It has ruined our image around the world. This may take decades to repair
