I want every torture-apologist to see these and have them shoved down their throats.

Frat hazing my ass.

and here's another lovely one, of the atrocity in Palestine today, a man running away with a dead boy in his arms. Thanks, Israel!

1. done nt

2. I don't get it...

What's with all the thumbs-up, smiley crap? I mean, really. It's like they think they're taking a picture with "rabbit ears" behind someone's head.

I guess I just don't understand the mentality that can find humor in a dead or tortured person in front you ... thankfully.

BTW, done on the rating thing.

8. re: thumbs up

They really have an "It's Miller Time" feel to them, don't they?

Surely, another victory in our battle to convince the Iraqis that we're "here to help"

[RoyGBiv]

12. Indeed...

And Welcome to DU!!!

[Warren DeMontague]

16. Thanks--

...And Howdy!

20. Hi impeachdubya!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[Scairp]

3. I know what they remind me of

Those dumbass big game hunters who pose with the poor creature they've gunned down in cold blood just so they have a head to hang over their fireplace. They look just like that. Very proud of making the kill.

[alphafemale]

5. They remind me of the lynching photos in the early 20th century.

This is the inevitable result of dehumanizing people.

15. HUNTING: THE "SPORT" OF COWARDS

17. more....

4. Thanks for posting. I'm so sorry Bush's war has warped some of our service

men and women to such a degree.

[laylah]

6. Done...n/t

[jpgray]

7. The media and Bush are largely responsible

They have been working so hard to define all Iraqis as "killers" or "Saddam loyalists", and then they are surprised at the results? But of course they have no problem with ordering this sort of thing to be done, they only demurr when documentation is distributed throughout the press.

[Disturbed]

9. Focus

The #1 question should be: Who beat this man to death?

[leftchick]

10. wtf? CNN: these photos show "alleged abuse"?!?

That news reading HO Carol Costello is the WORST....:puke:

[hexola]

11. Yeah - we have 1 conviction - not "alleged" any more

[Media_Lies_Daily]

13. Sad to say, but I doubt we've even seen the tip of the iceberg...

...wait until the pics and videos surface of Iraqis in the process of being tortured.

[chelaque liberal]

14. How do you rate this?

Low, because it is so horrible or high because it exposes the disgusting behavior?



He represents the American people.

[Eric J in MN]

18. your rate the photo highly because it is an expose (of the horrible)

and you are thanking the website for printing it, not thanking the people responsible for the horror.

[Eric J in MN]

19. The text says the people who killed that man aren't being prosecuted.

"The photo was taken by Sgt. Charles Fredrick who in e-mails to his family has asked why the people responsible for the prisoner's death were not being prosecuted in the same manner that he is. (ABC News via Reuters)"
