Reply #77: It's so obvious this crap came from higher ups

1. They establish camp x-ray in Guantanamo, where they don't consider the prisoners to be POW's, and therefore not subject to protections against... whatever they do there.

2. Abu Graib isn't getting results, Rumsfeld demands results, Rumsfeld transfers the head guy running Camp X-Ray to Abu Graib to get results.

3. Around this time these pictures are being taken. Only this time, the prisoners at Abu Graib are considered POW's, or at least normal prisoners (at least one would hope, being rounded up indiscriminately off the streets and such).

4. Pictures leak, Top officials express astonishment and horror!

Coincidence? Yes! It was just a few bad apples. Right? Right. Move along.
