IMO: Our TV news stations are keeping the close up graphic scenes of this off the air because of fears there will be a revolt against ME's / Muslim Hate Crimes here in the States.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations has not made any statements about the attacks on American corpses in Iraq yet!

I don't expect them to either.

Note also my caveat of "half of those interviewed"...it might have been a mighty small group. Nevertheless the thrust of the report was that there were few tears for the dead or expressions of outrage at the killers or celebrants.
CAIR condemned the mutilations but not the killings. How nice of THEM.
I'm sick of them.

Probably the same as the one on the front page of The Charleston News And Courier (South Carolina ). Even though I think it's sick, the pictures will set the liberal cause back plenty of painting the terrorists as human.
