Abu Gharib photos? Where are they?
I know that the gov't is trying to keep it under wraps but I wonder if the ACLU got some or all of them yet? Can someone please steer me in the right direction as to where to find them?

2. photos? whatever do you mean?
Edited on Tue Jul-26-05 12:38 PM by anarch
there are no photos. The U.S. doesn't torture anyone...just brings evildoers to justice. There may have been a few bad apples among the guards a couple years ago, but everything's great now!

besides, if there were such photos, they would have been released a long time ago, right? 'cause the government has held itself accountable and addressed the problem, right? if they're holding something back, I'm sure it's just to protect the innocent and maintain national security. right??

4. If what I have been reading about the photos and videos, I wonder if
others will mix in fake photos/videos with the real ones to discredit them and confuse everyone?

5. New photos are probably being taken every day
Suppressing the evidence of murder and child rape is only encouraging the BushTapo to continue with their evil. There are probably children in US custody right now, this very minute, locked up and afraid for their lives. For all we know, more videotape of unspeakable acts is being shot tonight at Abu Ghraib. This doesn't involve long past moments frozen in time, for which our military has learned its lesson. Suppressing the evidence only means that the BushTapo will be encouraged to go even father than before in its commission of war crimes.

Has anyone heard anything about anyone being prosecuted by our military for raping children? Apparently, they're not even investigating these acts, for fear that the news coverage of the prosecution of the people committing these crimes would make the truth come out.
