They were whitewashing them, PYW.
CNN's Easson (sp?) Jordan wasn't the only who remained silent, covered up Saddam's torture, in order to have access to Iraq. Pols, NGOs, celebrities, leaders received villas, cash, new Mercedes...invitations to the palace.

The punishments include fingers being chopped or shot off, tips of tongues being cut off, wrists being broken by sharp blows from a wooden rod, lashes by whip or cane, a bound man being tossed off a building, a beheading involving a sword and a knife and a man being humiliated by riding a donkey backwards. Take the reporters out of their hotel rooms and make them watch this for twenty-four hours.
Past time to toss the propagandists out on their ears.

I've seen part (couldn't watch some) of the tapes. Brett Baier's accompanying descriptions suffice in conveying the portrayal of Saddam's brutal regime. These tapes are probably not the worst that will surface.

CNN showed the tape. I don't know their reporters, Aaron Brown is the anchor. The reporter presenting the story said the Pentagon declined to release the tapes. They were obtained from military troops in Iraq that had made copies, then let others have them. The anchor stated that the segment to be shown was not the worst of the cruelties documented on the tapes.
!!!Inaccurate Reporting.......Brown just reported the Lt. Col. West story as 'essentially beating up a prisoner'.
To: PhilDragoo
True....esp. those from Al-Jazeera and others from Arab outlets.
