Rate it up! Army Destroyed Mock Execution Pictures

It begins:
Pictures of U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan posing with hooded and bound detainees during mock executions were destroyed after the Abu Ghraib prison scandal in Iraq to avoid another public outrage, Army documents released Friday by the American Civil Liberties Union show.

-Surprise! BushCo doesn't oppose use of torture, they only oppose having to explain it to the public. Go read it and rate it up, the Freepers have voted this down under to 2.87 right now to help hide it.

7. Notice that ABC has the story as well and....

while it has the same picture that YahooNews uses, it has a caption that says:

"In this undated file photo obtained by ABC news and allegedly taken by Sgt. Charles Frederick, Army Spc. Sabrina Harman, of the 372nd Military Police Company, poses with the body of Iraqi detainee Manadel al-Jamadi who is packed in ice at the Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad, Iraq. Al-Jamadi was captured by SEALs during a joint CIA-special operations mission in November 2003. He died a few hours later under CIA interrogation in the shower room at Abu Ghraib prison."
