In an interview yesterday, however, Brigadier General Janis Karpinski insisted she was "set up" by Army officials who had her sign the letter when she really had no idea of the depth of the problems uncovered at the now-infamous prison outside Baghdad.
In addition, Karpinski said she was notified in an e-mail yesterday that she was being suspended from duty, but has not yet been given a formal explanation.
"You'd think somebody would pick up the phone and call me," she said. "That should have been the protocol courtesy. I am a general officer. Nobody could spend the 25 cents to call me?"

You know what? I think Janis should stop whingeing. 'Set up' my ass. If she were set up, it's because she is easily duped. Why's she signing a letter without checking into the factuality of its content?
General Karpinski, you were part of the whole ugly, unconscionable scene. You want protocol? Protocol is part of why you are where you are.
