5-7-2004 (Archived)

Washington, DC - Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfield offered his apologies to the abused Iraqi prisoners today. "Sorry about mistreating you while you were in prison," said Rumsfield in a televised press conference.

"Also, sorry about the whole invading your country thing," he said.

Rumsfield ended the statement by tapping his chest, saying "my bad", and flashing a peace sign.

The abused Iraqi prisoners were unavailable for comment.
