The president didn't have anyone tortured. Just like the neo-cons people on the anti-Bush side are making baseless claims and accusations.

It doesn't help anything.

whatever your response is, i hope you had the same one when you saw the iraqi prisoner photos.

It's the same response I have to any images of prisoner abuse by anyone. I think the premise of this thread is disgusting. We hear almost daily about how one of our soldiers is killed by a cowardly road bomb, and idiots like smashhp have the audacity to wonder how we'd respond to unfair treatment of our troops. It's sickening to even know somebody who would ask such a question exists.

what exactly bothers you about this question?
it ask for what your reaction would be. it is a great question since it hopefully makes you think about what your reaction was to seeing the photos of how the US army is treating the iraqi prisoners.

A rather Mindless accusation from a head without a mind. The Thread Is purely related to PRISONER ABUSE Not Deaths of Gi's or civilians at the hands of terrorists, insurgents, militia men, islamofacists or whatever the "proper term" is for these "Evil doers" is today.


The Term for today is reading comprehension

and I quote Myself....

"What Would The US Do If We saw pictures of American GIs abused, tortured, Humiliated and forced to perform homoerotic acts by their Enemy captors?"

HMm did castro have people beat and killed in Cuba? Did Hitler have people gassed in Germany?
Did Milosovich have people murdered in Serbia?
Does not our history over and over set this precedent that a country's leader is responsible for the actions of his underlings? Bush is the head of the armed forces therefore he is ultimately responsible.

Those people you mentioned can be proven to have directly oredered and sanctioned the actions listed. I don't think you can say that of the President. By all accounts he has little to do with the details of the occupation of Iraq as he should.

The most direct involvement I can find was the recent decision not to invade Fallujah, where it was the president himself who gave the order not to take the city.

You're a coward. You asked a suggestive question and then cry like a baby when someone calls you on it. At least speak your mind without hiding behind passive agressive suggestive questions. Just asking this question implies that Americans are unfair when it comes to viewing events such as this. We saw pictures of Jessica Lynch all battered and heard reports of how she was treated...you tell ME how the hell we reacted.

Im a coward? Im not the One who self-appointed myself a Hero.

True Cowardise is the fear to Chose your own thoughs, prefering to chose someone elses.


Oh and For the Record, I Picked the Nuke Them option. Please remind me of a Time in recent Us military History Where their were Pictures of Abuse in Progress of american GI's.

Actually they make you aware of how sick you were made to feel as a child about yourself when you were treated as you now threat them. You either aped your parent's beliefs or you were a piece of sh!t. But you are actually free now and can think what you want. The binding that hold you down are all mental. The first step is to rage at the truth.

A U.S. court ruled against the case a few weeks ago.
