Link to new Abu Grahib photos
These are the "moderate" pictures, not the ones the Pentagon lawyer scum is trying to keep suppressed.

7. Put them in front of Cheney quail hunting. Put Cheney in front of Cheney
Note to all, I would NEVER advocate violence to the president or vice president on any such thing. These people need to be stopped. I wonder what this will do on top of the already rioting fundamentalist Muslims.

8. I was thinking about this too
That the cartoon riots in Europe may be used as evidence in support of the government's position that releasing the pictures will wreak havoc.

11. Just think about what the percentage of (detainees) were
supposedly involved in anything more than protesting the invasion of their country.... or not even that. Just swept up in raids.... We got some stupid mfers in charge of this country, stupid stupid stupid.

9. W is entitled to continue that - he declared so!

Bush Could Bypass New Torture Ban
Waiver right is reserved
http://www.commondreams.org/headlines06/0104-02.htm

by Charlie Savage

 
WASHINGTON - When President Bush last week signed the bill outlawing the torture of detainees, he quietly reserved the right to bypass the law under his powers as commander in chief.

10. Is that a CHILD in one of those photos?
Short, hairless, rounded limbs, no muscle definition - NAKED, hands behind head, and HOODED - compared to the men in the photo there seems no doubt is a child, but I simply can't believe my eyes.

14. last night I had a very graphic nightmare
I was in Europe
in one of the quaint town squares with the narrow streets and tall cathedrals
to my right I saw 6 men in black with hoods in an alley... I immediately ran to another block, saw
another man in black and hooded in the alley - no matter where I went there were more suicide bombers.

I awoke at 2am, very disturbed by the extremely detailed dream.

There is NO WAY we can win militarily. The bush administration has created a situation that I do not know we will ever be able to escape. War with Iran is a non-starter, yet bush will start it anyhow. The crimes against humanity which have been perpetrated by this regime are beyond the pale.

These photos are yet more proof that the rest of the world would be justified in attacking us, our government is guilty of criminal and inhumane acts.

It makes me sick.

15. Seems the only US soldier we see here
is the one we all already knew about, Garner?

I assume they are releasing these images and mixing a few of him in, so we continue to see this as one incident.

18. I've never been so ashamed of being an American.
The damage we've done... to these individuals and to our relationship with huge sections of the world.

I could only glance at a few, they're sickening...

19. Impeachment is too good
for these bastards. To think that our leaders allow this stuff makes me sick. What has happened to our country in five short years? It goes against all precepts of our founding fathers. The whole lot should be tried for treason.

22. Might as well kill them
Thats a lot of sucide bombers created.
Might as well kill them
Not that they deserve killing
But sad to say they would not be loving if they ever release

What can I say
Bush a genius at creating disaster
No brain what so ever

How the fuck can you win a war against terrorism
by creating more terrorist.

By going the part of torture
One create a bigger monster
Now they all like walking dead
Sad that they one day will die willing to kill innocents just to pay back.

WAR on TERROR
What a reality bush create.
And we fucking need to live in it now.

23. As disgusting as these are, they don't surprise me ...
... because I already hold those in charge of our mess of a country in such low esteem. It just seems par for the course. Speaking of which:

George W. Bush, courtesy F911: "I call upon all nations to do everything they can to stop these terrorist killers. Thank you. Now, watch this drive."

28. Is it odd that that SAME guy (in the hat) is in so many of them?
Like it's only a couple rolls getting released, like a family vacation. Christ, I recognize that guy like he's George Clooney at this point...
