Abu Gharib photos cause disgust and anger the whole world not just Islamoland

category international | anti-war / imperialism | opinion/analysis author Friday February 17, 2006 06:44author by anon Report this post to the editors

All Abu Ghraib Photos, videos and evidence leaked

The DVD containing the material includes a June 6, 2004, CID investigation report written by Special Agent James E. Seigmund. That report includes the following summary of the material included: "A review of all the computer media submitted to this office revealed a total of 1,325 images of suspected detainee abuse, 93 video files of suspected detainee abuse, 660 images of adult pornography, 546 images of suspected dead Iraqi detainees, 29 images of soldiers in simulated sexual acts, 20 images of a soldier with a Swastika drawn between his eyes, 37 images of Military Working dogs being used in abuse of detainees and 125 images of questionable acts."

salon got them from a soldier who served there

Looking at newsites, look at this report from ABCnews, it describes wednesday photos as merely "more of the same"???

http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=1626378

And the crucial thing that I see beingt it said "when the first batch of photos were released they caused anger in the Islamic world" They caused a hell of alot of anger and disgust all over the world!!, its not just about islamoland?

As explained in Chapter 1, "Standard Operating Procedure," some of the 279 photos and 19 videos in the archive depict controversial interrogation tactics employed in cellblock 1A. Among the examples of abuse on display in the photos were techniques sanctioned by Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld for use on "unlawful enemy combatants" in the "war on terror." These include forced nudity, the use of dogs to terrorize prisoners, keeping prisoners in stress positions -- physically uncomfortable poses of various types -- for many hours, and varieties of sleep deprivation. Some of these techniques migrated from Guantánamo and Afghanistan to Iraq in 2003. (The abuse depicted in the Abu Ghraib photos did not occur during interrogation sessions, but in some cases military guards allege they were encouraged to "soften up" detainees for interrogation by higher-ranking military intelligence officers.)
