Janis Karpinski quotes
" After they killed Uday and Qusay, the focus centered on Saddam: Find him, kill him, capture him, whatever it takes. To me, it was a false sense of security: If we get Saddam, we're going to win this war. "

Janis Karpinski
" And shortly after that, when I try to get access to those soldiers, to ask them what in the world was going on, I was told that they did not work for me and I had no right to have access to any one of them. "

Janis Karpinski
" Approximately 3,400 soldiers were deployed in February, March and April to go to Iraq and conduct prisoner-of-war operations. "

Janis Karpinski
" At that time, about July 5, we had no Iraqi corrections officers working for us. It was a responsibility of the CPA, with contractors, to set up a training program. "

Janis Karpinski
" During July and the first two weeks of August, we felt very good about what was happening in Iraq. We saw, in the north and the south, more Iraqis coming back to work, and traffic flowing in normal patterns. We believed some of the reports of going home by the end of the summer. "

Janis Karpinski
" I had 16 other prisons that I needed to pay attention to, and we did. And I had 3,400 soldiers who were depending on me to take care of them, and I did. "

Janis Karpinski
" I joined the 800th MP Brigade when they were already deployed. "

Janis Karpinski
" I knew how many MPs I had assigned to the brigade, how many military prison operations I would be running, but we needed to evaluate how many criminal prison operations we could support. "

Janis Karpinski
" I thought that that mission and the mission of taking care of those soldiers were my priorities, and I stand by the same today. There wasn't a lot of support for those soldiers. "

Janis Karpinski
" I was ordered not to go out to Abu Ghraib after dark early on, because Abu Ghraib was extremely dangerous. "

Janis Karpinski
" If they conducted a raid in this room, you'd all be policed up. They'd take all of you to Abu Ghraib and turn you over to the soldiers. Maybe there's only one or two of you in this group who was a known associate or had any piece of information that they are trying to exploit. "

Janis Karpinski
" If you are charged with this responsibility of enhancing interrogations, or using soldiers to enhance interrogations to find Saddam, and you're above the law for all practical purposes, you might try some unusual techniques. Now we know that, in fact, they did. "

Janis Karpinski
" If you hold thousands of prisoners, you have to feed them, clothe them, care for them, provide medical attention - and there were no provisions. "

Janis Karpinski
" In November, they transferred control of Abu Ghraib to the military intelligence command completely; it was, after all, the center for interrogations for Iraq. "

Janis Karpinski
" It's hard to be happy when you are facing 120 to 140 degree temperatures and nothing seems to be moving in a direction that you think or they think or you've been told it's supposed to be moving in. "
