"Strongly Condemns" Abuse of Iraqi Prisoners

"I strongly condemn the atrocious behavior of a few, who have denigrated the good name of all our armed forces.

"I salute the overwhelming majority of Americans who have treated prisoners with respect; their actions have gone unheralded. Sadly, this dreadful behavior has cast a cloak of mistrust on all our brave men and women and could result in more lives being lost.

"We must shed light on the roles of those involved and hold them accountable."
