2. Not really mindbogglin....
....when you consider the thousands of civilians that have been killed, and continue to be killed every day. Remember that the US ordered the Iraqi ministry of health to STOP counting Iraqi civilian deaths. Again, the media are at fault. They comply. They withhold. They shill for Bush and gang.

7. Thanks for the site
I've been navigating their links

I'm on this one now: http://www.tvnewslies.org/html/iraq_war_crimes.html

Lots of articles about US war crimes there. Just what my collection needs for finding stuff I forgot to book-mark.

4. A couple of questions for you
Why did you resize them slightly larger and then recompress them, resulting in an overall loss of image quality?

Why did you leave some of them out?

6. THOSE PHOTOS SHOULD BE SHOWN IN FULL!!!!!!!!
Anything else less than that is trying to minimize the full effect of those photos.

13. They are pretty crappy video captures to start with...not photos
I've only seen "all" of them in a few places...

Many omit the blowjob shot...

Why did you resize them slightly larger and then recompress them, resulting in an overall loss of image quality?

Thats an odd question - what's the problem? - they were pretty marginal quality to start with...maybe they were just trying to improve them - and not everyone know what they are doing with a graphics editor.

18. See post #4
The site linked at the top of the thread used some of my vid caps but made them worse quality. That's what I took issue with.

9. Even worse news....
AP report shows that more than a thousand civilians were killed in Fallujah. Bodies of women and children are being retrieved from houses hit with US bombs. Those photos haven't been shown yet. Just wait. Remember that Moslems must revenge such deaths or be dishonored. They can wait. They can appear subdued. But they will pay us back. The US took its own revenge on Fallujah for killing the four contractors. Seems that the ratio of live value is about 250 to one in our favor.

11. Faluja
The carnage photos from there won't have the same shock impact because they will mostly be from non US Media, so the US Media will subtely say that they are exagerated. the injuries and deaths in this city will be said to be unavoidable collateral damage. Also, for whatever reasons, sexual humliation photos seem to shock more people than ones of death.

12. You're right
I watch FAUX tonight and they had an "expert" on comparing what the soldiers did to cutting off arms and legs just didn't seem so bad when ya put it that way.

15. The US reaction doesn't matter....
The war supporters don't give a damn about any harm inflicted on Iraqis...especially those who have swallowed the 'terrorist' crap. Even today, Shrub said, when justifying his aircraft carrier speech...."a friend of terror is in jail" - of course referring to that arch terrorist, Saddam. Americans are easily duped.
But the reaction from the Moslem world will cost us big time. Our kids in uniform will pay the price.

17. I smell a Jihad against the US coming on
Just returned from TV News Lies. What a fricking travesty. I would not be surprised if the Arab world starts a jihad against the US. Whatever happened to treating prisoners according to the Geneva Convention...or I guess the US doesn't obey "foreign" laws?

:kick:

19. New photos added
TVNL has added more of the photos. I cannot understand why these sadists took pictures. But there will be more and more American deaths. Four more today in Iraq. Wait.
