You say "The pictures certainly were leaked--though evidently separately."
Leaking to me means they were under government control and then given to the press. 60 Minutes didn't get their photos that way. Neither did Hirsh. I don't know how the Post got their photos.

Not certain, but if they don't, they will certainly be scaling back, which means ol' Pukin will get the axe first.

I love it.... Senator Sessions is coming through again today.... All troops are routinely trained in the rules of the Geneva Convention.

She probably knew she was going down bigtime and wanted to get all the press she could to try to save her rear. Seems she is a misrable failure.

Smith: Taking pictures of prisoners is against the rules, especially with personal cameras. I violated the Geneva Conventions in 1953 by taking photos of Chinese POW's on Koje-do, in Korea. They were in line, awaiting interrogation, in the Quonset hut adjacent to mine.

She might not sit on the panel out of camera range since she is the last Dem to seniority, but she walked in just at 9:30 and made a beeline to McCain, since he was pontificating for about 8 video camera crews. She is so transparent about wanting to be on camera, she does not even walk naturally when she thinks she is being filmed.

Why is the US military using foreigners? Why are we not training enough Americans in Arabic? My guess is that they were from a friendly country (that I won't name here).
To: Peach
YOu know this hearing is going against the democrat attack dogs out to get Rumsfeld. I don't know when, but NBC cut away from live coverage, and CNN has too.

Why are we not training enough Americans in Arabic? Do you have any idea how difficult a language Arabic is? I took a few months of it, and I already know Hebrew fairly well. In classical, I believe there are six different gutterals, all of which will sound remarkable similar to an American ear.
There are apparently also many varieties of Arabic, with Moroccan perhaps the most complex. Pan-Arab broadcasts are in classical Arabic, but individual countries all have their own variants. A Hebrew professor I studied under once (who was raised in Morocco) said, "Spoken Arabic isn't written, and written Arabic isn't spoken."

Let's hope CNN and NBC didn't cut away before Inhofe spoke.

I haven't been able to watch much of this, but from some of the comments it looks like maybe the Republicans are on fire today.
Is that right?
