AP: Navy Probes New Iraq Prisoner Photos

The far more brutal practices photographed in Abu Ghraib prison occurred months later.

Did I miss something? Yale has hazing incidents that are "far more brutal" than the "practices photographed in Abu Ghraib"?

Note the light on the guys head? That's coming from the high powered Surefire flashlight mounted on the bottom of the SEALs .45. That's why he's pointing the gun at the guy; there's a flashlight on it, and it's dark. Thats how it's done, with M4s , SAWS, or whatever weapon has a light on it. This happens a million times a day in Iraq, because its a good way to keep people covered and illuminated.

This is a totally bogus issue.

That's right.

I've got the attitude.

( and so do you! )

So what are you going to do?

Bend my dog-tags and take away my Birthday?

The way those prisoners were handled, and then photographed, and then the pics getting out was simply idiotic. It was a bone-headed stunt from start to finish and it's going to splash our guys.

According to you, behold the face of Evil:

We'd better rush right out and either shoot her before she has a chance to breed, or forcibly convert her to Christianity. She's a threat, I tell you! /sarcasm off.

"According to you, behold the face of Evil:"

B.S.

Quite the slayer of straw men, are you not?

[tiamat]

"Straw men".



No, not really.

Otherwise, I'd engage you more.

However, I don't care to waste more time on you, despite the fact that you saw fit to rattle my cage a total of 4 times.

Go play by yourself.

I'm done with you.

Most folks, when they write, "according to you" have some basis for their assertion, such as something the person wrote or implied. You make up accusations out of whole cloth and attribute to me.

Nice. Very nice.

We don't care, we don't care, we don't care care care.

We won, we won, too bad so sad, we won we won we won won won.

Sha-na-na-na, Sha-na-na-na, hey hey, good bye.

We toldyaso, we toldyaso, we toldya toldya toldya so.

Whos in the white house? Booosh, Booosh, Booosh!

In other words, they didn't beat us with Grab Abu, so who cares now. Coals to Newcastle.

Except for Timothy Mc Veigh, Bader Meinhoff, the people who used Sarin in the Japanese subway and Basque Sepratists,.

But remember, it has been rumored (and immedialtely swept under the rug by the powers that be) that Mc Veigh had help from muslims. And those other guys are not trying to forceably convert you to their religion

That doesn't mean they're not terrorists.

"The images were posted to the Internet site Smugmug.com. The woman who posted them told the AP they were on the camera her husband brought back from Iraq. She said her husband has returned to Iraq. He does not appear in photos with prisoners.

The Navy goes to great lengths to protect the identities and whereabouts of its 2,400 SEALs - which stands for Navy Sea, Air, Land - many of whom have classified counterterrorist missions around the globe.

"Some of these photos clearly depict faces and names of Naval Special Warfare personnel, which could put them or their families at risk," Bender said.

Stupid Stupid Stupid!!! Dumb woman, clearly endangering the life of her husband and ALL the others as well.
