"....However, a three judge panel of the appeals court in September 2008 rejected the Bush administration's attempt to use exemptions to the FOIA as "an all-purpose damper on global controversy" and recognized the "significant public interest in the disclosure of these photographs" in light of government misconduct. The court also recognized that releasing the photographs is likely to prevent "further abuse of prisoners." The Bush administration subsequently requested that the full Court of Appeals rehear the case. That request was denied on March 11, 2009..."


"include images from prisons in Iraq and Afghanistan at locations other than Abu Ghraib.

"These photographs provide visual proof that prisoner abuse by U.S. personnel was not aberrational but widespread, reaching far beyond the walls of Abu Ghraib," said Amrit Singh, staff attorney with the ACLU. "Their disclosure is critical for helping the public understand the scope and scale of prisoner abuse as well as for holding senior officials accountable for authorizing or permitting such abuse."

its going to be a sad day if we're looking for help from the Roberts Supreme Court

generals think it would endanger any soldiers - or for that matter any human being - I say NEVER.

I think Obama should fully stipulate that they exist, that we tortured, that we are bringing the perpetrators to justice ( every last one of them top to bottom), and we vow to never do it again.

I also think that if Pelosi had any part of condoning it, even tacitly, and she has no proof she objected,
she needs to be relieved of her chairmanship.

Anyone. Our side. Their side.

I am total hardass on this issue.

Last week. Last month. Last year.

Spray 'em with gasoline and torch them.
