Lynndie R. England, the public face of the Abu Ghraib prison scandal, told a German magazine that she was sorry for appearing in photographs of detainees in the notorious Iraq prison. She said she thinks the scenes of torture and humiliation served as a powerful rallying point for anti-American insurgents. England conceded to the newsweekly Stern that the published photos incensed insurgents in Iraq, "but I didn't make it worldwide." She added: "I feel sorry and wrong about what I did. But it would not have escalated to what it did all over the world if it wouldn't have been for someone leaking it to the media."
 
Oh yeah, was that a media type holding the leash around the neck of the Iraqi with the hood over his head?
No it was Lynndie R. England!
