We are not to abuse prisoners.I read an Email from a soldier who spoke about how hard it was not to shoot at the cheering crowd while a buddy burned in a truck that had been attacked.No one would have blamed the troops watching the cheering crowd for shooting..except their military.We don't do that.

This same soldier was mad as heck at the abusive behavior and photos and wants the perps punished for staining their honor.The provocation from the prisoners ,in custody cannot have been so great.

The perps were out of control and breaking the law.They were mugging for the camera and disgracing themselves and their uniform.More,more brutal pictures are also held in the criminal investigation.Rumsfield was shaken by them.

He and Myers just saw them last night and that's why they look so tired,I imagine.There are hundreds of pictures and he says its bad.He hasn't seen the video.

The whole thing stinks, what type of moron commits war crimes and poses for the cameras ? Micheal Moore said he had people working in Iraq. Something to think about.

You know what--what the MPS did was something that must be done. It's the pictures that shouldn't have been done. I think you got to break those SOBs and I think harsh times call for harsh measures.

I think this is being blown way out of proportion. I think the Enemy Within is working their a$$es off to cost us this war.
