ok... i can go along with that. showing someone a picture that makes them uncomfortable and more willing to talk is definately better then torturing them. then why not stage the pictures... use actors or something. placing hooded prisoners in naked heaps and, if true, sodomizing them is simply not the American way and, IMHO, any US soldier who didn't question such an order shouldn't be there. never should we lower ourselves to their level...we are above that.
Better yet... simply photo the prisoners without hoods, in US custody and broadcast their faces around the world! sticking something in their bums is way too OBLish and foolish. those cowards wear way too many hoods anyway, much like the kkk idiots.
You would be surprised how many people in America (even on FR) advocate sodomizing American prisoners in American jails.
