How does that contradict what I said. Abu Ghraib broke more than two years after Saddam’s overthrown by which time Al Qaeda had already moved into Iraq. I was strictly talking about post-invasion matters, not the actual decision to remove Saddam.
Sigh. And because you had never heard of it until then (two years in), the locals hadn’t? I don’t think the pictures going stateside was the first time Iraqis realized some US agents (military, contractors) were mistreating them.
