wow. My post with pictures of dead Iraqi babies got deleted
I'm kind of shocked.

My question, I thought, was a legimate one. Why are pictures of naked bodies simulated sex acts okay for the media to show, but not pictures of dead babies that we've fucking killed?

I really think the reason they're showing the torture pictures over and over ad nauseum is because they're sexual in nature.

The media loves anything sexual in nature.

They continue to sanitize the violence.

And it's now happening at DU!
