there will definately be an effect.. just probably not a huge one.
I mentioned earlier that this will help terrorist recruitment stiffen resolve turn the iraqi moderates against us etc.. but one of the other concerns is seeing the so called "coalition" crumble further as support for the war in coalition countries took significant hits after this latest round of "torture" disclosure.
Most of these countries residents didn't want to follow the US in in the first place and now it's getting harder for them to rationalise staying there and having this "rub off" on them.
Not that the coalition members mean fuck all to the actual effort however.
