The Department of Defense announced late Thursday that a 'substantial number of photos' depicting abuse of prisoners at prisons in Iraq and Afghanistan will be released.
The Department of Defense announced late Thursday that a "substantial number of photos" depicting abuse of prisoners at prisons in Iraq and Afghanistan will be released.
The photos are being released in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union in 2004.

Is he home?
This is a direct kow-tow to the Far, Far Left Wing of the Democrat Party on behalf of the Obama Administration. Move-on.org, Code Pinko, the ACLU and a number of others will settle for nothing less than Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld up on charges.
This is NOT a DOD decision. This is being done at the direction of the President, and nobody else.
This is meant to be a distraction. This gives NBC, CNN and others plenty to splash across those HiDef screens in this Country in the hope that people will be so outraged all over again, that they won’t notice things like Cap and Trade, skyrocketing unemployment, and the hype-inflation that is on the way.
We are in deep, serious trouble in this Country, and I am certain that at least half of the population of this Nation have either no idea of how much mortal danger we’re in, or are so deep into Obama mania and denial that they will never believe us if we told them. The consequences lie somewhere down the road, at a time and place of our enemies’ choosing.
This Administration has made so many horrifying decisions in just the past week that I truly fear for our safety. There is absolutely no reason to dredge all of this up, and it is obvious that the Administration either refuses to see the damage they are doing or they simply do not care.
Either way, our safety as a Nation is being directly compromised, and the question becomes, what the hell will we do about it??
If they still have their heads attached, I ain’t buying.
Yes, he just got medically retired due to his wounds. Took a long time (over 2 years primarily because he tried to go back to work and work rear detachment while his unit was still deployed), but finally got it. We’re about to move on too and looking forward to it. I was accepted into law school...a conservative one at that! ha! I’m ready to fight now though. hahahaha.
Don’t forget to include the names of all of the persons who’ve been kidnapped and beheaded by members of Al Qaeda.
Also remind them of the hundreds of children raped and murdered at Beslan.
Hannity is really going to need to spend a great deal of time showing 9/11 pictures on his show to offset this nonsense.
I think he and Beck are probably the only two TV guys that will have the guts to show 9/11 photos to offset these left-wing idiots.
Well, good for you! And more power to him for having such a strong woman!
I'm sure the Saud's have tortured many more than Bush did - and they get a bow...
We wait until we've got them where we want them. Congressional hearings will do nicely.
Then we spring out the full story of the intelligence obtained by aggressive techniques, and put on display the defused bomb(s) that would have gone off in selected American cities.
Makes it pretty hard for the Dems not to look like total asshats at that time. Especially if Zero has let one get through by that time. As I've said before, his election is going to cost us one American city before we're through with him.
1) They are creating a distraction while they further gain control of the private economy. After the financial system, it's health care.
2) Obama’s poll numbers are in severe decline, almost below 50% now. After that, he will have far less ability to ram this socialization through. The public is catching on, and the totalitarians don't have much time left. Neither do we.
Oh, that’s very helpful. Americans had better steer clear of Muslim countries for a while, because no doubt the response to the photos, like the Abu Ghraib propaganda fiasco, will be to take western hostages and behead them.
No particular concern as to who those hostages are, either. Could be Dutch or Italians just as easily as Americans. Could even be Hollywood liberals.
Their deaths will be on Obama’s hands—not that he cares about the deaths of Americans.
Bless you and your family.
My friends son was just called back from a Black Hawk detail there because it was too dangerous.
Hugs to you and yours.
Thank you so much...we’ve endured a lot and continue to go through a lot and this acceptance came at a good time for me and for us.
Well, yes....we have to consider the source. The Zero has
sucked up to every terrorist that he’s come in contact with.
And he questions the Bush era means of getting information?
I don’t believe that the Bush Administration “tortured”
anyone.
Btw, notice that the media to this day has not and will never show video of the bodies jumping from the flaming windows of the WTC on 9/11.
God bless you and your family.
Our prayers are with you and your family! THANK you for YOUR SERVICE!!!
