My Ex-husband SKULL-BUITRE ran off to Colombia with OUR money and screwed me after I helped him build OUR business.
He is hiding in Colombia and never paid the settlement $ from our divorce!

not just that.. smart people don't send their kids off to iraq.
Looks like he is rolling the guy over to see why he is screaming.
And incase you want to know why he is naked and bound, is because the guy is considered hostile. That man will kill any one of the americans given the chance, and the americans have learned not to give that chance.
The photos that you have shown here are NOT photos of torture.

oh yeah, it's completely acceptable to wrap people in sheets, stuff pillows over their head and throw them in a big container!
no I dont. I think that they are protecting them selves.
And that is the smart and right thing to do. they do not want to go home missing a finger or ear.
As for the photos. Well that is the stupidest thing that could ever happen. BUt it could be their orders to photo record the events for the government.

I have said this before, and I'll say it again...NO PARENTS ARE SENDING THEIR KIDS to war!!!
You choose to join the military, when you join you are signing that at time of war you will take arms and go to war.
MY little brother just started college, and he is enrolled in ROTC....he's a friquen brilliant kid, he knows the consequences of war, understands what he is getting into., yet he wants to be a cadet....
My parents aren't stupid....nor are the parents of all them men and women serving this country.
I was born in a country where the men have no choice, they have to go off to war....and get killed....EVERY MAN in my country serves...
The US offers men and women the right to join....if there is war...tought shit suck it up and move on......you don't sign blind folded!!

Have you ever seen a cop go through a traffic light with his lights and soren, only to turn them off after clearing the intersection?
Did you sit and think to your self, Must be a sale at the donut shop?
Did you stop to think that he could be headed to a robber in progress where a person on the phone can still see the events unfolding, and the cops want to get there to catch the bad guy instead of scare them off??
Well. Tell me what the soldiers orders are?? Do you know? Then you are assuming. and you know what that does.
If you showed me a photo of a soldier cutting the arm of one of these guys in multiple places, then I would agree with you 100%
Though they have alarmed SEAL commanders, the photographs found by the AP do not necessarily show anything illegal, according to experts in the laws of war who reviewed photos at AP's request.

I beg your pardon.... I'm not stupid and I have two going! Speak for yourself! When our kids join the military... we're not sending them off anywhere . They are sending themselves off to protect and serve our country. Where they end up after they join is not up to us as parents. There are a**holes everywhere ...don't let this reflect on all troops regardless of where they are from or what they believe is right.

Originally posted by pornguy OK, now I read the article and I still have the same feelings.
It only takes one person to label them as torture, and then the sheep fall in line.
You were the only person in this thread using the term "torture". KRL used the term "abuse", which is much broader and can include much milder, non-physical things than torture - it could in fact even include humiliating and degrading prisoners by using them as trophies in pictures.
Oh yeah. Abuse. Well then the rough things that you have seen in the photos above you can give a reason for? You can say 100% that they were abusing them? Were you there?
Have you ever been in a combat situation?
Oh wait. this IS the net, so I am sure that you have been.

Did you even read my post?
[abuse] can include much milder, non-physical things than torture - it could in fact even include humiliating and degrading prisoners by using them as trophies in pictures.
And the important part from the article:
John Hutson, a retired rear admiral who served as the Navy's Judge Advocate General from 1997 to 2000, said they suggested possible Geneva Convention violations. Those international laws prohibit souvenir photos of prisoners of war.
Oh, and where exactly do you get the idea that it matters if I've been in a combat situation or not?
I've seen horrors...horrors that you've seen. But you have no right to call
me a murderer. You have a right to kill me. You have a right to do that...But
you have no right to judge me. It's impossible for words to describe what is
necessary to those who do not know what horror means.
Horror. Horror has a face...And you must make a friend of horror. Horror and
moral terrorare your friends. If they are not then they are enemies to be feared.
They are truly enemies. I remember when I was with Special Forces...Seems
a thousand centuries ago...We went into a camp to innoculate the children.
We left the camp after we had innoculated the children for Polio, and this old
man came running after us and he was crying. He couldn't see. We went
back there and they had come and hacked off every innoculated arm. There
they were in a pile...A pile of little arms. And I remember...I...I...I cried...
I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I
wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want
to forget. And then I realized...like I was shot...Like I was shot with a
diamond...a diamond bullet right through my forehead...And I thought:
My God...the genius of that. The genius. The will to do that. Perfect,
genuine, complete, crystalline, pure. And then I realized they were
stronger than we. Because they could stand that these were not
monsters...These were men...trained cadres...these men who fought with
their hearts, who had families, who had children, who were filled with
love...but they had the strength...the strength...to do that. If I had ten
divisions of those men our troubles here would be over very quickly. You
have to have men who are moral...and at the same time who are able to
utilize their primordal instincts to kill without feeling...without passion...
without judgement...without judgement. Because it's judgement that
defeats us.

Thank you... luckily one was able to come home for Thanksgiving and the other lives close enough to where we will be able to visit before he leaves. I wish the troops a fast and safe return.
