Sadam already planning a law suit. Apparently the Sun is going to publish more pictures tomorrow.

Saddam to sue over prison photos

The Sun says this is an "extraordinary iconic news image"
Saddam Hussein plans to take legal action after a British newspaper published photos of him half-naked in his prison cell and doing his washing.

"We will sue the newspaper and everyone who helped in showing these pictures," said Saddam Hussein's chief lawyer Ziad Al-Khasawneh, speaking from Jordan.

The Sun newspaper said it would fight any legal action and said it planned to publish more photos on Saturday.....

I wonder if the "abused" prisoners at Abu Ghrab are gonna jump on the bandwagon. They are all sewers. IMO

The British Tabloid THe Sun are the ones that took and posted the pictures first, and somehow, it is the US that is going to get bombed?

I think that the Pentagon should confiscate everything at the New York times and make a total example out of the publishing editor and the columns author.

Next time someone in the media wants to post a story that is going to end up killing American lives, they will think twice. They should also press charges on any TV station that airs the pics as well.

I am all for freedom of speech, but when their freedom of speech is threatening MY life for something I had no part in, they have then infringed on my right to life.
