Newsweek: "A detainee...covered with an unknown brownish substance"...

...apparently, the magazine's euphamism for "shit."

They have a Flash photo gallery ("Featured Gallery: Abu Gulag") that is beyond surreal (http://msnbc.msn.com/id/4926710/).

To see these photos in Flash "Web Photo Galleries," with their soft fade transitions between photos and such, 16 photos that range from the England "thumbs up" to the terrified guy with the guard dogs, up to the most recently released photos, gives them an artistic "frame" that they really don't deserve. It's just damn strange.

There's a photo of an "unidentified U.S. soldier" who looks like Grouch Marx with green gloves in the middle of a pile of hooded, bound prisoners in the middle of the floor, beating the shit out of one of them. The first slide of the gallery is a warning that the content to follow is "disturbing" due to the "graphic" and "violent" nature.

I think that's Graner.

can they?

And by god, please no one mention the word "nipple". There will be massive congressional investigations.


This country is completely fucked up.

Woo-woo and cockydoody.

n/t

I promise.

poo is fast becoming one of my favorite words and I couldn't bear to see it left off your great list.

pooty poo.

Oh wait, isn't that bush's pet name for Putin?

a pretty shitty nickname

Where the hell is Dookus? He can usually smell anal humor freom a mile away.

I better be careful or I will vote Republican.

...if he can say it twice in one fucking sentence, and he's the guy DOING it, maybe the time for the Bush administration to stop calling it a "frat hazing" or a "prank."

More of Graner "following orders" from MSNBC (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5030097/):

"He said Graner cuffed him to the bars of a cell window and left him there for close to five hours, his feet dangling off the floor. Hilas also said he watched as Graner and others sodomized a detainee with a phosphoric light. "They tied him to the bed," Hilas said."

"He also said Graner repeatedly threw the detainees' meals into the toilets and said, "Eat it."

"One day, the detainee said, American soldiers held him down and spread his legs as another soldier prepared to open his pants. "I started screaming," he said. A soldier stepped on his head, he said, and someone broke a phosphoric light and spilled the chemicals on him."

When it's an american raping a prisoner, it becomes "having sex".

He surely knows the correct terminology.

look at the smear patterns on his buttocks, the shit on his hands and head. sick sick sick fuck nazis

sorry, bad joke, I know.
I think this campaign is going to drive me to drink or insane.
Wake me in November.

"Unknown brown substance" - have they NO imagination?

I would possibly reconsider my stance on the death penalty where Graner's concerned. I want to see that man PUBLICLY tried and humiliated.

medical experiments, etc etc etc

This is not over. How many more tens of thousands of them will we kill before we are run out of IraqNam?

...made them take their meals from toilets."

Direct quote on the allegations surfacing on the treatment of prisoners. MSNBC showed all of the new photos and a few seconds of video.

...pork and alcohol."

She was on MSNBC a few minutes ago (3:40 PM Pacific).

The example has been set by The Commmander In Chief, Sociopath, on down. It is obvious that the policy of torture is system wide, not just a few bad apples.

Amerika is ruled by Siociopaths. Amerika is no longer a Democratic Republic. Amerika is now a Neo Fascist Oligarchy.

completely.

Now what does one do?

Time after time since this group took over, the people have been horrified by one event after another. And still, it's a close race? Many people enjoy horror movies, and horrible actions and events in life.

edit: Drat. Still no star.

you see, they really want to belong to the democracy frat house. (Even though they hate us for our freedom.)

At minimum tacit approval was given for these actions by those in charge. Words fail me.

I wonder why? :grr: :grr: :grr:

Can't have the 'murican people looking at this * can we *?

:dem: :kick:

America....land of the free, home of the brave?

America truly no longer looks like America anymore. THIS, these pictures, they are what GW Bush will go down in history for; THIS is what his name will forever be associated with.

Bush is indeed not Hitler. But we can truthfully say that he is the American Hitler.
