look what abu ghraib did to us. that was not organized torture. that was crime by a small number of american guards. but it mobilized the region against the united states. it cost thousands of young men to come from north africa, syria, saudi arabia, we saw them when they came in, we captured many, we picked up documents, their primary motivation was this perception that abu ghraib represented the american way in the region and they were absolutely exercised about this. where that becomes perception, it's difficult for us to be credible players in the region. >> i want to ask you about a couple of areas that involve your judgment and decisions made in your career particularly toward the end of your career. one had to do with pat tillman, former nfl player who was awarded the silver star. we snow that in fact he was the victim of friendly fire. a very harsh criticism in a book with you i wanted to go through something he said on this program. this goes back a couple years. and allow you to respond to it and what he says about you. his point is that
