The image these "shocking photos" present is one of Iraqi men completely subordinate not only to American soldiers, but to American women. This is not accidental.

Unless I've missed something, so far I have seen no photos of beatings or physical injury, just humiliation based on nudity and sexual innuendo. That strikes at the heart and soul of Arab pride.

If we're beating Arabs, that's okay. It's macho to take a beating. They expect that, they can handle that. It's noble and glorious to suffer for Allah.

But for an Arab man to be photographed lying maked on the floor with a leash held by a small American woman who does not seem to fear him in the least?

Oh the humanity!

I really think you are on to something with your link. Makes perfect sense. The Middle Eastern men are macho -- that would explain why some of the photo's looked staged -- they were!
