Just hoping some of the cup of rage folks will share the same rage

I know google helped them at the time. If you would search from a US based IP address the images were all OLD.. with Saddam still in charge... but if you changed your IP to any other country the new photos would show.

So, do you think Reuters and other media friends helped hide this


Photos removed due to lack of NSFW warning.

WASHINGTON — A boy no older than 11 was among the children held by the Army at Iraq's Abu Ghraib (search) prison, the former U.S. commander of the facility told a general investigating abuses at the prison.
Brig. Gen. Janis Karpinski (search) did not say what happened to the boy or why he was imprisoned, according to a transcript of her interview with Maj. Gen. George Fay that was released by the American Civil Liberties Union (search).
The transcript of the May 2004 interview was among hundreds of pages of documents about Iraq prisoner abuses the group made public Thursday after getting them under the Freedom of Information Act.
Karpinski, who was in charge of Abu Ghraib from July to November 2003, said she often visited the prison's youngest inmates. One boy "looked like he was 8-years-old," Karpinski said.
"He told me he was almost 12," Karpinski said. "He told me his brother was there with him, but he really wanted to see his mother, could he please call his mother. He was crying."
Military officials have acknowledged that some juvenile prisoners had been held at Abu Ghraib, a massive prison built by Saddam Hussein's government outside Baghdad. But the transcript is the first documented evidence of a child no older than 11 being held prisoner.

Military officials have said that no juvenile prisoners were subject to the abuses captured in photographs from Abu Ghraib. But some of the men shown being stripped naked and humiliated had been accused of raping a 14-year-old prisoner.
The new documents offer rare details about the children whom the U.S. military has held in Iraq. Karpinski said the Army began holding women and children in a high-security cellblock at Abu Ghraib in the summer of 2003 because the facility was better than lockups in Baghdad where the youths had been held.
The documents include statements from six witnesses who said three interrogators and a civilian interpreter at Abu Ghraib got drunk one night and took a 17-year-old female prisoner from her cell. The four men forced the girl to expose her breasts and kissed her, the reports said. The witnesses — whose names were blacked out of the documents given to the ACLU — said those responsible were not punished.

Would anyone care to research how many of these people were INNOCENT?

Lame reractionary post and I hope you get the ban hammer for posting those photos instead of just linking them AND providing a NSFW warning.

Fucking pathetic.

Abu Gharib is like 5 years old, can you remind us why you are bringing this up?

Simple

Short term memory which always leaves the US as totally innocent and paints everyone else as the only bad people.... see.. there is this chicken and egg thing...

It is posted because of the outrage about one or two photographers allegedly cropping some photos from the gaza boat incident... This was cropped for a LONG time by the media.. yet USA is Angel

Except neither Abu Ghuraib or the USA are involved in the flotilla incident, and no one in their right mind thinks the US government is/was angelic before or after Abu Ghurib.

The only connection between this and the flotilla incident that I can see would be Reuters helping to cover something up if they were involved (I'm not really sure if you're saying they were or not).

dahunan I know you love seeing those images but others don't. Why not throw up a NSFW warning before you post stuff like this? I know you think you're making some sort of point or something but you aren't, you are just making me want to throw up- and I blame it on YOU.

Saw them years ago. It's old news regurgitated but I guess for reactionary trolls like yourself it's all you've got.

And unlike you I don't have a need for an alternate account. Ask any mod if you don't believe me.

Yes, I am sure the whole world has just forgiven and let it slide.

Americans are responsible for the acts of their government yet they just choose to forget it and keep blaming others for not accepting US Aggression

404 sympathy for terrorists

It's fairly well known that a lot of the people locked up aren't guilty of anything, let alone terrorists.

"Many of the prisoners abused at the Abu Ghraib prison were innocent Iraqis picked up at random by US troops, and incarcerated by under-qualified intelligence officers, a former US interrogator from the notorious jail told the Guardian.
Torin Nelson, who served as a military intelligence officer at Guantánamo Bay before moving to Abu Ghraib as a private contractor last year, blamed the abuses on a failure of command in US military intelligence and an over-reliance on private firms. He alleged that those companies were so anxious to meet the demand for their services that they sent "cooks and truck drivers" to work as interrogators.

"Military intelligence operations need to drastically change in order for something like this not to happen again," Mr Nelson said. He spoke to the Guardian in a series of interviews by phone and email.

He claimed that "many of the detainees at the prison are actually innocent of any acts against the coalition and are being held until the bureaucracy there can go through their cases and verify their need to be released."

"One case in point is a detainee whom I recommended for release and months later was still sitting in the same tent with no change in his status."

Mr Nelson said that the same systemic problems were also responsible for large numbers of Afghans being mistakenly swept into Guantánamo Bay. He estimated that "30-40%" of the inmates at the controversial prison camp had no connection to terrorism."

muslims not found.

If you think people should be locked up for their religion that's just ant-American bigotry.

More like...much of the world has acknowledged it and moved on to the present day. Unfortunately some internet forum trolls apparently haven't moved on yet. How sad for those people that are still so firmly entrenched in the past that they have to dredge it up when their terrorist heroes get caught with their pants around their ankles by passing off propaganda as news?

It's completely pitiful. So to try to counter it they post threads like yours. Threads that completely deserve to get locked and the OP banned for posting in-line images that are in no way safe for work.

But continue with your stupidity. I'm amazed you can actually try to defend this piece of shit thread. I seriously doubt I'm alone in this opinion and based on the replies this thread has received I know I am not.

lol. TLC, the neocon...who voted for Obama.

Hey, jackass. Sorry you can't comprehend who and what I stand for but it's not really surprising considering your simplistic outlook on the world. Remain a reactionary, partisan, terrorist supporting douche. I'd expect nothing less from you. Please, do continue to make a complete and utter fool of yourself. I knew it long ago but apparently others, who used to side with you, are finally realizing the depths of your derangement and stupidity.

You know for 100% fact that the terrorists you see are the real terrorists.. and they were never provoked at all.. Cool story bro.

Ever notice how much money we give to Native Americans? If not they would probably be terrorists too... why do we pay them so much.. I am sure we never did them any harm, right?

lol. Reach much? This thread is now about Native Americans?

You're shooting randomly in the dark. Give it up already when you still look like a simplistic douche instead of an ignorant douche that has gone way off-topic in a lame attempt to salvage what tiny respect you may have left.

PSA: It's too late.

Didn't see the pics . But how many here seen the news as it was in the late 60's early seventies of war in nam . News at 6 for all americans to view all ages. Why do you think they don;t do it anymore . puppets on a string is what we have now . Shooking stories with shocking pictures adds a bit of real life horror to a story. Pics are good , no matter how terriable they are . A small child starving to death in africa while a vulture awaits dinner. That sounds really terriable doesn't it . But we all have seen the picture.
The picture hits ya hard . The man that took pic also took his own life a bit later.
