Iraqi Prison Photos
Okay this one goes on the what the hell were they thinking file. First of all what the hell were they doing to these prisoners?? I mean San Quentin seems a safer place to be than this freaking place. What was the purpose, that is what nobody has explained to me. Were the soldiers just getting there kicks, were they attempting to interrogate these prisoners? And then regardless of what they were doing who is the sick bastard who pulled out the Kodak and say hey lets get some snapshots of this crap. Have we become this voyerisitc society that these pictures on any level would entertain anyone?
Finally this is an issue that everyone can agree on, this is totally intollerable. I think every one of these soldiers should be dealt with swiftly and justly first by receiving a dishonorable discharge and then have to walk around with a scarlett letter on their chest or some other sort of public humiliation. This war, occupation or whatever you want to call it is unpopular enough and now these morons have gone and made it even more unpopular. And I do not mean just for the sake of those who wanted us to go to war, but for the safety of the young men and women over there. We have seen already the horrible reprecussions that these actions can have, and now I am pissed and hope we kill more of them which probably is not the way I should be thinking, but this is the vicious cycle we get on when it comes to these problems. I just hope we can stop any of this nonsense and continue to help rebuild the schools and economy of the country.
Hidden in all this maddness is one of the best stories to come out of this whole mess. That story is of the Iraqi Olympic Soccer team who just the other day qualified for this summers Olympic games. "It's a crazy joy for us," Iraq defender Ahmed Alwan said. "Despite all of the difficulties we faced, we still managed to qualify for Athens and I believe that we deserve our place in the Olympics." Now that is something we can be proud of, our disposing of Saddam Hussein and his Baath party helped get Iraq reinstated to the International Olympic Committee and allow these young men who love the sport of soccer to be able to compete for there country. As Americans we can be proud of that.
Peace & Love
