Now see? There you go ruining a perfectly good conspiracy theory. The most logical answer is not allowed since it does not implicate at least Rumsfeld.

Though, I must admit that when I first glanced, I thought it said Stealth Baclava."

Am I the only one who is pleased that these Muslim men were given a tiny taste of the humiliation that Muslim women suffer every single day? When is anyone else but James Inhofe going to stand up and say "ENOUGH...this is Bull sh*t!" How quickly Nick Berg is forgotten and the top story is once again pointed to the trivial fraternity hazing that these Iraqi lice experienced ("split the lip of a former Saddam General"....awwww...my crocodile tears are flowing!).

I love baklava! I guess the "stealth" kind makes you think that it's lo-calorie/lo-carb until you eat it.

But "balaclava" is a more "multinational" word for "ski mask"

If they really wanted to humiliate them they would have sent them to the store to buy them. No milk, no bread, just the maxi-pads.

LMAO!!! Oh the horror, the degradation. The least we could have done is hang them upside down and whip their feet and rear ends with canes.

Black Jack Pershing is rolling in his grave.

FR's reaction to these detainee abuse reports pisses me off. I can vividly imagine the reaction of Freepers if it were jihadists sodomizing, humiliating and beating the shit out of American troops. The same yahoos who are now laughing and shrugging it off when it happens to Iraqis would go twitching mad.

Actually we did go twitching mad several times. Daniel Pearle, Lori Piestewa, Jessica Lynch, Nick Berg, and a convoy of IDF troops whose body parts were grabbed like trophies.

What these guys are doing doesn't even begin to spell payback.

"Riiight....." doesn't really count as an explanation, Joe.

Why don't you try it again and explain to Tex and I:

1......Why those videos and photos were NOT.............Taken by CIA operatives with CIA cameras and the resulting images were not being kept under the tightest security and shown only to other intelligence operatives with the proper security clearances and with a "need to know".

and

2. ......Why those videos and photos WERE .............Taken with the private digital cameras of junior enlisted personnel, mixed in with videos and photos of "Lynndie England Gang Bangs the 372nd Military Police Company", and burned to CD-R disks so that the CD-R's could be traded around like baseball cards and the videos and photos could be sent to civilian friends and family back in the U.S. so they could be leaked to the media and end up on the Internet from Poughkeepsie to Pakistan.

In a sworn statement to investigators, Pfc. Lynndie England explained the mystery of why soldiers at Abu Ghraib took pictures of detainees masturbating and piled naked with plastic sandbags over their heads by saying, "We thought it looked funny so pictures were taken." ................. "Picture 000015 was basically us fooling around," she said, pointing to a photograph of detainees stacked naked in different positions ................ "She wanted a picture because she wrote `I'm a rapist' on one of the detainees," Private England explained, pointing to two pictures she said were taken by Specialist Sabrina Harman.

This is Specialist Sabrina Harman:

Specialist Sabrina Harman is not an intelligence agent.

She is just an idiot taking "funny pictures" with her friend Lynndie England for entertainment and violating every security regulation in the book.

So tell me, why didn't PFC Lynndie Newman, er England, (pictured below), didn't have any digital images in her possession?

She did. The CD-R's with hundreds of photos on them were being passed around her MP Company like popcorn.

The collection of photographs begins like a travelogue from Iraq. Here are U.S. soldiers posing in front of a mosque. Here is a soldier riding a camel in the desert. And then: a soldier holding a leash tied around a man’s neck in an Iraqi prison. He is naked, grimacing and lying on the floor. .............. Mixed in with more than 1,000 digital pictures obtained by The Washington Post are photographs of naked men, apparently prisoners, sprawled on top of one another while soldiers stand around them. ................... The graphic images, passed around among military police who served at the Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad, ............

The Army has a collection of her copies of prisoner photos mixed in with her copies of herself and her boyfriend having sex together.

The Iraqi prisoner photos on the CD-R's were mixed in with all the other "recreational" photos. For Lynndie England, the "recreation" included having photos of herself having sex.

LOL, it's been all over the news, yet not one statement about her having them in her possession. You think they missed it Tex, or just forgot to document that minor point? Hehehe....
