Drudge: Troops Swapped Hundreds Of Abuse Pictures

**** Rightwing Source*****

Hundreds of photographs have been taken of British servicemen mistreating Iraqi civilians, it was claimed tonight.

Troops serving in southern Iraq have been swapping the pictures among themselves, said the unnamed soldiers from the Queen's Lancashire Regiment who sparked furore over the weekend by releasing photos apparently showing UK personnel abusing an Iraqi prisoner.

Jeebus H. Bush. I can't wait until those hit the net. We are truly fucked now.

4. You can bet that...

British Military Intelligence, MI5, MI6, MI-up to 999999 are turning over every goddamned rock they see, to try to find all of those pictures and keep them from hitting the Arab press.

It seems that the only thing we really have been successful at is shooting ourselves in the foot.

I do hope that Kerry, if he gets in, takes a serious look at the officers corps in the military. Might be time to do a little pruning.

3. This had to fed to him by...

Murdoch's folks. How else could he be getting skinny from the UK?

They are using Drudge to get the stuff out there that even they can't run with, to see if it gets some traction.
