Wrong. The jihadis are afraid of their friends seeing them on prime time Al Jazeera playing naked twister. If they were outraged, they would be escalating the bombing. But instead, they're running back to Syria.

You have a twisted view of what's right. Fortunately yours is the minority opinion, because these actions have done extensive damage to our ability to achieve American objectives.

"Andrea Mitchell is probably just spilling what she heard at the cocktail party last night.

Actually I think Mitchell is just bragging about what she did at the cocktail party last night. ;-)

Only under special circumstances is rape a capital offense.

Also there is this report today:

SICKO SHEIK OFFERS 'SLAVE GIRL' BOUNTY

Which is nothing new because Islam permits the capture of sex slaves seized in war.

Democrats and the leftist press care more about offending ragheads than about winning the war.

Most Americans would have us treat the terrorist prisoners the same way they treat our captured soldiers.

What is it that you'd expect the media to do?

Be RESPONSIBLE when reporting a story will do. Report facts, from NAMED sources, will do. Report LEGAL documents, photos and the like, will do. Report the NEWS in a fair and UNBIASED way, will do. Am I asking too much? I know I am being NAIVE, but ONCE AGAIN, am I asking too much?

Exactly. the photo of the dirty jihadi on a leash has probably saved hundreds of American soldiers lives as the jihadis decide it's not worth the risk to be humiliated on Al Jazeera.

"American deaths have nearly stopped since the photos were released. These so-called atrocities are saving American lives"


Think of all the lives we could have saved.............

How's that? Suicide bombers love
death - theirs & however many they
can take with them. No kidding. It
is a death cult. They brag of it.

"I agree - the suicide bombers are stepping back - they realize it's a lot less painful to watch the U.S. military hang itself... "

You nailed it. Incredible that this will drag out while it is still 'being investigated', 'haven't read it', 'working its way through the chain of command'. Seems like the Army wants to keep it on the front burner.

Prior to the photo release, American deaths were approximately 4-5 a day. Since then, only 1 in a suicide bombing in Baghdad and Al Sadar's people are getting creamed. American lives have been saved because of these photos and you should be happy about it.

Unfortunately the majority opinion is the opinion of a bunch of uneducated pansies. If my opinion was majority, the war in Iraq would be over...would have been over weeks ago. All we would be doing is rebuilding right now.

You simply cannot connect a break in killings with the release of these photos. There are too many variables involved - only time will tell whether these revelations have any bearing on Iraqi behavior.

It is Hillary and her HINO (Husband In Name Only)
who brought these practices to the Military.
If Rush is right, the phrase by Rummy..."I don't know how you know that" will be soon answered. You better believe he is going to find out exactly what she knew, how and how it was leaked .
Apparantly the references have to do with homosexual acts being photographed.
Remember "Don't ask don't tell"? I think Hillary stuck her foot in it .

I appreciate the vote of confidence in my opinion. Many others have way to weak of a stomach to smash militant islam...read: pu$$ies.

Yes,I totally agree with you. Although we don't know the truth of it yet, all the pictures looked as though they were lifted from a sleazy internet porn site. Young kids - like these soldiers - wouldn't think up stuff like this.

Or am I completely out of touch?
