She did the RIGHT thing, and the sickos involved should be punished. Imagine the roles were reversed and those were OUR POWs being degraded in those pictures. Morality should not be relative. So Sadaam tortured thousands of his countrymen . . . that makes this okay or not THAT bad?

The executed prisoners in the Al Jazeera footage had their pants pulled down. That detail was not ever made the headline subject of the treatment of Allied POWs.

I agree that what is being discussed in these photos is against the Geneva convention. I just wish that the world knew what happened to the good guys.
