maybe the abu ghraib photos were released deliberately to adjust us
to accept torture as not so bad.

1. The second set were supposed to have been released two days ago?
..any idea what happened to them? Did the DOD file another last minute bullshit appeal, or are we FINALLY going to see photographic evidence of the evil being done in our name?

2. Let's get those photos out to the world


Sure they are holding them up until the Boy King comes back from South America.

They want us to believe that the world is so in love with him -NOT.

3. Oh, that was just a silly court order. The Bush Crime Family
only obeys the laws it likes.

4. Spoon fed
first a few stories
then a few more
getting more and more gruesome

Now it's not a shock to hear about our soldiers doing just about anything. Now they have to move it out of the prisons, though from what I've read, that was already done in Iraq. I've already read stories of random brutalization of Iraqi civilians.

I recall commenting last year on how the stories about the torture seemed to be being managed, spoon fed for our consumption a little bit at a time.

6. Wha? They were released?!?!
The gov't won an extension of the appeals to the 15th of November last I checked. Why would they suddenly release them? Do you have a link?
