Torture in Iraq

[6thGen]

It's a little graphic. I'm guessing the folks they plan to drag behind cars and blowtorch just aren't understanding enough of the nuanced Middle East culture.

It's ALOT graphic! made me sick to my stomach on the first page, didn't even bother to finish it.

I saw it on the drudge this morning as well. I am suprised this stuff is released. I imagine there are plenty of sickos who just found more material.

OK, many that we are fighting in Iraq are animals, and a greater understanding of their art and culture won't stop them from attacking us.

Um, when did the Iraqis start attacking us, exactly? Was it before or after we invaded & occupied their country?

Do we really need to go through this again?

apparently so until some people realize it was Osama bin Laden and his gang of Saudi terrorists who took down the WTC!

Apparently we do. They use & respect torture. They seem to like to drill holes in each other, in addition to all the other methods you felt we needed to see. If we occupy their country, they will keep doing it to our soldiers, too.

6thgen, I don't know how you propose that we get them to stop doing it to each other, but it's getting worse over there, not better, and we should leave before another 3000 volunteers get killed or worse.

Our invading forces weren't welcomed as liberators, as the administration hoped, but rather those forces have created a focus that wasn't even there 5 years ago .... there was no al Qaeda in Iraq before we showed up.
