Salon.com posts Abu Ghriab Photos 2

Prepare to be horrified, saddened and angered all over again. :-(

The Abu Ghraib files

279 photographs and 19 videos from the Army's internal investigation record a harrowing three months of detainee abuse inside the notorious prison -- and make clear that many of those responsible have yet to be held accountable.

Editor's note: The 10 galleries of photo and video evidence appear chronologically in the left column, followed by an additional Salon report on prosecutions for abuse and an overview of Pentagon investigations and other resources. The nine essays accompanying the photo galleries were reported and written by Michael Scherer and Mark Benjamin. Photo and video captions were compiled by Page Rockwell. Additional research, reporting and writing for "The Abu Ghraib Files" were contributed by Jeanne Carstensen, Mark Follman, Page Rockwell and Tracy Clark-Flory.

its horrifying proof that some of our soldiers are that depraved and our government that evil.

2. Bush, Cheney and Rummy must be held accountable for this.
We need to keep this atrocity front and center because they are still doing it!

3. No way that...
The videos of children being tortured and, according to Seymore Hersh, raped, screaming in front of their mothers, have been released. Sorry, but that's the headline you want to shove down Bushbots' throats - this shit happens because of the legal wrangling of the War Pigs you support.

And who exactly did Pat Robertson claim to be "satanic?"

4. Oh what have we done to our young people and the Iraqi's?
How could these people be trained to lose their humanity so? How will they cope with the rest of their lives? How could the families, friends, people of these Iraqis ever forgive? Oh world, I am so sorry.
