No it is not. This story has already been covered IN DETAIL! We have the suspects. We are dealing with them in court. These pictures uncover nothing new.

If they uncover nothing new, then what are you worried about?

Since everyone already knows what's in them, why make a big stink about hiding them?

The only thing that will happen with the release of these pictures is more bloodshed of our troops. I am not OK with that.

Since everyone already knows what is in the pictures, why would it result in more attacks on the troops? You think someone who might not otherwise attack the troops is just kicking back on the couch drinkin a beer right now, and this well-known pictures are going to all of a sudden cause him to strap a bomb to himself and fling himself into a Jeep?

I doubt it. The people who want to fight already have their reasons.

P.S. Don't treat prisoners of war like animals unless you want the world to know you treat your prisoners of war like animals. If it is going to disgrace the nation, just don't do it. Then, there will be nothing to hide.

I feel that this basic point of personal responsiblity is being lost on some folks.

To Americans, this is an old story. To foreign countries, it may be made into something else. You assume in your arguments that everybody in the world views things in the same way or is provided information in the same way. You have no idea how these new pictures will be presented in foreign countries. They may be portrayed as a brand new event or govt's may spin it to make people think that we have not taken care of the problem.

Censorship of national issues is one thing. Not realizing that other countries do not follow our censorship rules is asinine.

So even though those who treated prisoners like animals have already been given their sentence, the nation should be disgraced again for the same story AFTER we have taken action?
