Let me just clear some things up with some solid facts. I have some quotes from investigative reporter Seymour Hersh, who has written a major article about the Iraq torture situation in this week's issue of "The New Yorker" magazine.

"...this was not a prison full of hardened, you know, soldiers caught in war. These are full of civilians...

...60 percent of the people in the prison had nothing to do with, no bad feelings toward America whatsoever. They simply were caught in a random roadside check or they were snatched off the street. They should have been processed under the Geneva Convention...

...they should have been processed. We should have gotten rid of the good guys from the bad guys. There was no control, no paperwork."


Okay, so some of you saying that you feel no remorse for these people because they were terrorists have to understand that most of these people were civilians. Doesn't that just disgust you?

:
Make them lay on each other naked [which was quite an amusing photo, especially with the woman smiling] like it's any big deal?
You should be ashamed of yourself, Jacob.

Hersh: "First of all, it's going to get much worse. This kind of stuff was much more widespread. I can tell you just from the phone calls I've had in the last 24 hours, even more, there are other photos out there. There are many more photos even inside that unit. There are videotapes of stuff that you wouldn't want to mention on national television that was done. There was a lot of problems.

There was a special women's section. There were young boys in there. There were things done to young boys that were videotaped. It's much worse."


Here's your proof, Jacob.
