This just freaking makes me cry. It's total BULLSHIT that the enlisted who took part in these pictures are getting all the blame while Donald Rumsfeld toasts in the 2nd term of the idiot's regime.

Makes me so glad I went down to DC and did my small part to protest. To think I was mere feet from Bush's limo passing by me. I feel so unclean!

1. When Will it End?
I'm almost certain there are photos none of us will see. Photos so gruesome... it makes me sick just to imagine, but I'm sure Rummy found uses for them toasting his marshmallows.

6. My guess is Rummy's use for them involves
chokin' his chicken.

3. The pictures have to be posted.
As much as we may hate it. As much as we feel defiled by knowing these things are being done in our name.

Thanks, LynneSin and all who post pictures of what is actually happening in Iraq.

5. All through the last century
we keep seeing the proud work of
monsters too evil even to be banal.
Squalid humanity, emulating the worst
that the word beast can connote, and they
are all American boys and girls.

Remember, when the serious econonic warfare hits home this year,
this is what America is showing the rest
of the world. We will be a generation making up
for this, at least.

Worse, this work goes straight to the desk
of the future Atty Genl, and those monsters
who hired him.

But Bush** wants to work with Europe.
Last I checked, the EU has eschewed torture.

7. 1,000 more phots and some videos..
are in the vaults of the DOD and will never be released. Some Congress folk saw them and were appalled yet they will still vote for Gonzales. The Dem Party is complicit in the Cover Up of Torture on a wid scale.

8. the real disgrace here . . .
other than the content of the photos, of course . . . is the ongoing refusal of the US media to show Americans exactly what's happening in Iraq . . . if you watched television news (I don't), all you get is the rosy scenarios favored by BushCo . . . everything's peachy keen, we're winning hearts and minds, nothing to see here, move on . . . anyone who thinks this country has a "free press" is delusional . . .

9. I'm glad you went
and out of respect for you won't pose some even worse ones from that same prison, some that have rarely been seen and are really gruesome but trust me, there were worse ones released. I shudder to think what's in those vaults.

11. No I don't but thanks...
& welcome to DU. I've seen so many of them that this late at night, before going to bed, I just can't. There a website called The Fire This Time and another called Extreme Deformities that has those pictures too. They're horrid. I don't know how people can sleep at night when they condone and excuse that sort of thing. You're right- it's hidesou- ghastly, and it has to end.

Welcome to DU Mt1000.

Spend some time in an American prison. Btw, if u fight back against the dog while its chewing your nuts off and going for your throat, felony assault of a police officer.
