This goes way beyond taunting kids with water or throwing a puppy. This is the kind of shit that seriously damages the "hearts and minds" concept of fighting an insurgency. I would be reticent to suggest looking at the actual images.

H.

LOL whenever we start talking about "war crimes" liberals start screaming ABU GARIB!!!

and whenever the talk is about presidential corruption they scream RICHARD NIXON!!!

just like their new cry for gun control, GABRIELLE GIFFORDS!!!!!


it's just meaningless, politically driven bullshit.

if you believe for a minute that any liberal in this country gives a shit about anyone involved in abu garib, for any reason other than political dirt, you are a fool.

oh and, I've watched the videos and seen the photos... and I'm ok with it.

why? well, I never saw a video of marines, army or contractors sawing the heads off of iraqi civilians with butcher knives.

Furthermore, I dare say it would help our cause and hurt our enemies if we gave them more doses of harsh treatment.
