The interview that Kim did with Philip Zimbardo (and which is linked to in her article) is an important one for everyone to read. When I learned about the Stanford Prison Experiment in college, I realized that given the right circumstances, ordinary people can be driven to do extraordinarily terrible things. And in Lynndie's case, you can really see just how much the situation blinded her to the fact that what she and her colleagues were doing amounted to torture (be sure to read her full interview, also linked to Kim's article). I think it speaks to the corrupting forces of power and the consequent need for reality checks and monitoring, whether it be in a civilian prison or Abu Ghraib.
