I finally saw more pics of this stuff. I had only seen the guy on a box

tied
to wires before. The rest of the pics look like hazing. Humiliating the
prisoners for kicks. Nothing deadly or torturous? Defiantly adolescent
behavior. I need more info to determine if this was torture?



I checked in at the Drudgereport, and there's a summation of the Army's
internal report at the New Yorker website:

True. I guess I hate to see their lives ruined over this stupid behavior.
There I said it.

But it's more than merely stupid behavior. These stories create distrust
with America at the worst possible time, and will be used as a recruting and
motovational tool by our enemies.

Jd I don't disagree with anyone that its wrong and your points are well
taken. But if your looking for a way to stop this from ever happening . Well
you know. This thing about human rights in war is a funny thing too me. It
seems we are always held to some moral standard that our enemies could care
less about. I always hear people saying things like " If we treat their
prisoners right they will be more compelled to treat ours good. That's
bull****! Every enemy we ever faced was ruthless and only cared about
wining. Most peoples opinion of war comes from what they see or hear in the
news and that's a cleaned up polished version of what it really is. I think
if some of you witnessed the real face of war your opinions would change.
People just seem so surprised. They would be real surprised if they new all
that goes on in war.


I don't condone the treatment of these prisoners, they were abused, but
far from tortured, however you can bet they would be happy to have the
honor of flying aircraft into some more US buildings, killing thousands
like 9/11, they would even be happy to fly one into MB's or any other US
citizen's house.

Yeah, it looks like all the media coverage is rooted in General Taguba's
report. If I'm getting the dates from the news story correctly, General
Karpinski was suspended in January. So none of the prision pictures and
stories relate to anything which has happened recently.

This is one of those catch 22 issues. On one hand you have to go against
this behavior because of the political aspect and on the other it was
performed on those that would kill us if they had a chance. I don't condone
it either but it doesn't bother me that they were humiliated. I could have
turned a blind eye if I was there. I guess it my Viking blood. :)

taken NO prisoners in the

Yes, one would expect you to advocate extermination. Won't the archives show
that you used to preach that very same advocacy against minorities here in the
US? Has the war simply given you some other place to focus your desire for
extermination of some category of humans?


The future will show that Islam and the rest of the world are not

If given a level playing field, those POW's may well readily seek to kill
our people. The hard truth is that the situation they were in was not a
level playing field. They were POW's detained under our control and
responsibility and we should handle them according to our standards. And,
no - I'm not advocating giving them a level playing field - I'm advocating
that those bad-apples are held strictly accountable for their actions.


[snip]

There's a news story about one of the prisoners in the pictures. The short
version is:

He was tortured under Saddam's regime because one of his cousins was linked
to an assissination plot against one of Saddam's sons. He ended up in US
custody because he was a passenger in a stolen taxi and was arrested with
the driver. He was held for months without being questioned about the
stolen taxi. He got into a fight with another prisoner, and it was decided
he needed four hours of punishment. Punishment by humiliation. His image
is among the widely circulated pictures of naked men.

"Abed is mentioned in the United States' military's internal investigation
report. He's described as a credible witness. He's also a devout Muslim."
