FWIW, there's a lefty site claiming that the photo is at least as old as 2009, and therefore not of Stevens in 2012

Florida Squeezed: Tea Party Circulating Fake images of Chris Stevens

Because the photo can be found at this old website

Bagram a Living Hell (Nov 24, 2009)

I doubt the photo had anything to do with Bagram either (I think it's even older/clean-shaven uniformed torturers). For now I'm leaving it as "Unproven/False"

Thank you for doing some verification. It’s horrific and I’m glad I never posted it!

Obama CLEARLY wants to stay out of it. He wants them to be able to successfully create the caliphate.

His ONLY concern right now is that they have to stop killing people because it is making it awfully hard to for him to continue to help them

I’d have the hostages read from a teleprompter: stay out, this is none of your business...

Did he really say something this stupid, or is this a joke???

Tough call. This appeared in The NYT so I guess it depends on your assessment of the seriesness of that birdcage liner.

I wonder who posted this. It looks like somebody who really was there and knew what was going on.

If you look at the link I posted it shows a Jerry Ballard USNRet.

http://venturacountyteaparty.ning.com/photo/a-archived-photo-of-stevens-being-tortured

My link is different than the one dagnabitt posted, same site but mine is an archived link.

Don't be surprised if in the next video....there's a note on his chest.

I was thinking that too - 'pinned' with a stake through the heart

I am sick to my stomach. Somebody has got to get this out and publish it.

There were rumors at the time, but I just thought it was exaggeration and the “playing telephone” effect where things get distorted in the telling. But this looks completely real to me and if it is real, somebody in the WH - and a certain former Dem presidential candidate - should be out there on their knees begging forgiveness of us.

Horrible, horrible, horrible.

And the nation is about to elect another candidate who never served in a military uniform.

There are plenty of Americans who didn't wear a uniform but understand the importance, honor and meaning of the uniform.

Likewise, some associated with "the uniform" haven't the least damn clue.

He’s been promised the job of caliph of North America some day.

I remember the ‘tortured with a cattle-prod’ claims at the time and that’s why I saved the picture and site url when I saw it. But nobody else has posted it and that’s very unusual.

So, I’d do some checking with that ‘Jerry Ballard’ at that site, if possible, to find out more about it. His name seems familiar to me but can’t think of where else I’ve seen it.

Damn, that last row gets depressing.

Knowing that the next entry is Hillary doesn't make me feel any better.

This is not picture of Stevens. No one will tell me what this is a picture of, but it is not him. Please stop posting a lie.

See my post below, it is not Stevens.

I wish I did know who it was, but it is aan old image.

I backtracked that photo from another thread and it was in some article about CIA torture. But it didn’t explain the photo - and may just have been some generic photo in an article about torture. The folks torturing the body don’t look like CIA.

But who could it be? Where did they get it? Some poor soul died a terrible death, and he looks Western.

‘photograph of alleged torture by Argentinian authorities in the 1980s, during President Raul Alfonsin’s democratic rule.’

From a more detailed search. Still - who knows. But, others have confirmed that it was on the net prior to Benghazi. There are other gruesome photos of Stevens that should be used instead.
