I can see the point of releasing the identity of a prisoner and the problems surrounding this.
But when I first heard of this video on the news channels I was expecting something really bad. The initial reports were that they were being humiliated, and THAT was the 'infringement'?
To me it seems they don't want the video to be shown on tv for morale reasons, and by saying it's a breach of the Geneva convention they somewhat succeed keeping the video away.
Not even the British news channels will show it. And they are usually very unbiased. As unbiased as you can be when you're part of an invading force.
I watched Fox news a couple of days ago.... very scary....
The theme was "showdown in Iraq", as if it was some sort of entertainment program. It was actually disgusting to watch.
