Blindingly obvious to anyone not in denial the past few years - "Rumsfeld's decision a "direct cause" for POW abuse, says bipartisan Senate report."

I'd say 'better late than never,' except, you know... not really.

Rumsfeld's decision a "direct cause" for POW abuse, says bipartisan Senate report - Boing Boing:
"'The abuse of detainees at Abu Ghraib in late 2003 was not simply the result of a few soldiers acting on their own,' the report says.

Instead, the document says, a series of high-level decisions in the Bush administration 'conveyed the message that physical pressures and degradation were appropriate treatment for detainees in U.S. military custody.'"
