Hey, the media is CLEARLY not the one to blame in this situation. If you want to place blame, its on the soldiers that committed these acts, and then were dumb enough to take pictures of these WAR CRIMES, and the send them to their friends! You tell me who's to blame?
The military took NO ACTION for a period of 2 months AFTER a report on the incidents was filed. Do you think the BEATINGS, RAPE, and MURDER would have stopped on its own?
I understand you're upset, but how is this possibly the medias fault?
no, the military took plenty of action, the DoD even TOLD the media they were investigating this crap back on Jan 16 i believe it was. it wasnt a story then though, they couldnt sensationalize the evil tyrannical america with photos of a few twits having sadistical fun.
Additionally, you are an assclown for levying the charges of rape. the British 'rape' photos have been proven to be fakes, as has a set of American ones, these are the only alleged rape accounts in the press. You ought to be ashamed.
Additionally as for murder, the no number's cause of death is still unknown, People have had heart attacks, strokes, emballisms being questioned by the police department. Wait for the facts before you conjure up [censored]. IIRC the only other murder case involved a guard and an iraqi prisoner throwing rocks at him. The guard was certainly out of line to light the bastard up...
but on the other hand my meanspirited side says any einstein prodigy dumb enough to throw rocks at a man with a machine gun needs to be eliminated from the gene pool.
You need to learn to take your banter with a grain of salt, Innocent until proven guilty is how we do it here. the only guilty souls are those guilty of humiliating prisoners (GC4) and they damned themselves by making their own evidence, open and shut case.
take this load of BS as a prime example of what happens compared to what you find in the press.
Quote: Frauds Try to Exploit Iraq Abuse Scandal
Fallujah native Abdul-Qader Abdul-Rahman al-Ani, his left elbow wrapped in bandages, his right forearm bound in a cast, recounted how he was beaten by soldiers who picked him up last month. The soldiers tied him and two others arrested with him to a tree and sodomized them one after the other, he told journalists.
"I ask President Bush," he said. "Does he agree with this?"
As Ani, 47, repeated his story, he was interrupted by Jabber al-Okaili, a member of one of the human rights groups that organized the gathering. "He's lying," al-Okaili shouted. "He's a liar!"
Al-Ani was rushed to an office, where al-Okaili and others unwound the bandage on his left arm and found the elbow unscarred and healthy.
