The guest today on the Diane Rnem show was Senator John McCain,
.... The first thing
Ms Rhem asked him was if he had ever received an answer from
Rumsfeld and the DOD to his question about the chain of
command at Abu Graib. He replied ...he
STILL had not received an answer as to hwo the chain of command
was organised at Abu Graib.

As you know this shows that the DOD is STILL stonewalling, refusing
to provide the information needed to identify the respnsible officers
and officials.

Can you provide a link to the UCMJ online?

John McCain say that he had not received the information
that he requested. Sen McCain said that what he received
in response to his request did NOT answer the question.

I take John McCain at his word on this. I cannot prove
to you that I heard John McCain say those things.

A failure to provide the requested information does not
prove that it is being deliberately withheld, but the
alternative explanations, for example, no one at teh DOD
actually knowing what the chain of command was, seems
rather unlikely, don't you agree?
