Shocking images shame US forces
http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/6B135A01-B99C-41C1-B36A-53197281D21E.htm



A series of shocking pictures revealing US soldiers tying up Iraqi women and children in their own home has provoked international outrage.

The occupying forces have now come under renewed fire for their treatment of ordinary Iraqis as shown in the pictures published today by Aljazeera.net.

CAIR, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, is conducting an investigation and seeking advice before taking further action.

"This kind of image increases resentment of American troops in Iraq and can also play a major part in demoralising troops who are having to tie up small children.

1. IIRC...
This same headline was used when a soldier was searching a boy for weapons.

5. These are just like the ones with the little girl in the green dress

that the AP reporter got in trouble for right when the Crusade began.

The American public want to see new and different atrocities, and with more blood.

Everybody knows they tie up little girls already.
