It's complete bullshit. The "Arab world" knows what's in those fucking pictures. I really wouldn't be surprised if Al Jazeera's shown them on TV. In either case, only an idiot would believe that word hasn't gotten around over there.

We're talking about RAPING CHILDREN TO GET TO THEIR PARENTS here, Busheep.

NOTHING justifies that. Nothing.

The "Arab world" has every goddamned RIGHT to be inflamed over that. God knows I am, as any decent fucking human being should be.

And I would have no problem turning child rapists over to an angry Arab mob, regardless of what uniform they were desecrating.

That's because you're a dishonorable cunt.

The ONLY reason, I mean the ONLY reason you, FORD and others want the photos released is because it's yet ANOTHER opportunity to expose Bush and Co. for the corrupt, disgusting band of thugs that they are.

I agree they are thugs who should get thrown out. Lounge, you know I have absolutely ZERO respect for this administration. But releasing these pictures won't accomplish your goal. All it will do is incite violence against the very troops who are already in harm's way, and make it more dangerous for our country. National security and the safety of our troops is more important, in my opinion, than the political agenda of embarrasing Bush and Co.

I am all for releasing the photos in conjunction with the criminal prosecution of the perpetrators, as long as the court records are sealed.

Agreed.

So if I'm a "dishonorable cunt" for wanting child rapists to get the punishment they deserve, then what are YOU for wanting them to get away with it?

Tell ya what, collect all the pics and put them in a scrapbook.
Then, once all our troops are home you can release them all day long.

I agree with Guitar Shark.
The only people it will hurt is the troops doing their jobs correctly because of what those pictures will be used to do to attack Bush.

Which is exactly my problem with a lot of the protests, they miss the target and put the troops safety in even more jeopardy.
You just can't do that and expect people to listen when you say you do support the troops.

It's irresponsible and the judge made the right call.

[FORD]

OK. Bring the troops home. Except for the ones directly guilty of this. Keep them over there. Throw Rummy, Wolfie, Oily Dick, and the Monkey in with them.

Then let the Iraqis dispense justice as they see fit.

Nope. We dispense justice as we see fit to our troops. That's the way it works. That's the only way a PFC or Coporal will ever get a fair trial in the US military.

Sorry.

Give 'em to the Iraqis....what a nutball idea.

Drop the insurgent fuckers where they stand and with a weapon in hand. there is no conspiracy in that, it's just war.

Taking them back to lock them up, feed them, let them read the Quran and maybe get out later to kill some more is bullshit.

I would find no pleasure in abusing someone i want to see dead, i'd rather just shoot them and walk away.
Chances are someone's death will be vindicated by offing the insurgent fuck so my conscience would be clean.

He picked up a weapon to fight us, therefore let his corpse drop where it stood.
And even that gives them more dignity than the people they have beheaded.

What part of THEY RAPED FUCKING CHILDREN are you guys not understanding?

NO uniform gives you the license for that.

Not a police uniform, not a Scoutmaster uniform, not the robes of the Catholic church, and NOT THE UNIFORM OF THE UNITED STATES MILITARY.

Put a bullet in THESE piece of shit's heads. It's better than they deserve.

You're changing the subject. This thread is about whether to release the pictures. So let's assume that they raped children (which, by the way, hasn't been proven yet). How does this affect the decision of whether to release the pictures? If anything, it weighs AGAINST releasing them.

This is one of those good threads where I don't need to add anything.

Why is that? Your opinions are always valued here. By me anyway.

The pictures should be released because the BCE and the military need to admit to what they have done and take responsibility for it. And the Muslim world needs to know that this is NOT acceptable to Americans (except Brian, apparently)

Thank you. I feel the same about you. That was my point, which I often fail to make.

I was going to say things that you, Cat, FORD, and Lounge all said. It was like... ok, no point muddying the waters.
