“It’s worth keeping an eye on the list of people and groups who now claimed to have warned people about what was going on at Abu Ghraib and went unheard. (Or, in some cases, mentioned it before 60 Minutes II ran the horrific photos that I’ve seen too many times.)

• Spec. Joseph M. Darby (unknown timing)
  
• Colin Powell (via Kevin Drum)
  
• Paul Bremer (last fall)
  
• General Antonio Taguba (late February) (Taguba has now learned, it seems, that no good deed goes unpunished.)
  
• David Kay (before leaving Iraq)
  
• the Red Cross (November 2003 at the latest)
  
• Amnesty International (March 2004 and some initial warnings on June 30, 2003)
  
• the Department of Defense (January 16, 2004)

I’m going to try to keep this list up to date, so if you have any additions, send email, with a URL to a news story if possible.”
