As upsetting as those photos (our stupid photos of the Americans screwing with the Iraqis), I do believe that they should have been published. They would have inevitably leaked and that is what a free society does. I would add Mr. Bergs death (and subsequent / inevitable deaths) to those soldiers crimes that are being prosecuted now. As far as the a$$holes that just killed Mr. Berg, there should be no mercy.

Lastly, I wonder if we will see the video of the decapitation on American television as often as we have seen the stupid fraternity party pictures that the American soldiers took. Seriously, it makes the whole leash picture kinda tame in comparision.

My thoughts have been that the scum that did this in the name of the prison "abuse" are fueling the s***storm here. I mean really, here's an example, old ted kennedy talking about seeing saddam's prisons operating again under US management. WTF? I'm sorry I find nothing "patriotic" in his comments at all. I mention that since many on the left are so fond of stating a differing of opinion is patriotic duty. Sure, having debate is great but that is over the top to put it mildly. There are so many others wringing their damn hands over how we are "abusing" known terrorists, murderers etc it is sickening. Where is the outrage over this? Or the Contractors murdered and hung from the bridge? Or our Men and Women under constant attack? All these politicians are doing is continuing to endanger our Troops, our Country and our security with their b.s. personal greedy agenda.

I think this video should be shown on every newscast as often as they show the prison pictures. Perhaps then Americans and the rest of the world will see what abuse really is. But...oh geeezzzzz the media outlets won't show it because it is so very graphic and disturbing. Yes it is, and I am sickened by what I saw and what I heard (one of the radio stations just this morning broadcast the audio, you can clearly hear his screams and chanting of the scum as Mr. Berg was being murdered) I couldn't help but be overwhelmed with emotions from extreme anger and hate for those bas*****, and from pure sympathy for the family of that young man.

Wake up America. Please.
