I think , this shouldn't be in breaking news.
Enough with trashing of our brave our troops.
( Yes, some are A-H and they will be brought to justice)

Nude human pyramids, hoods, electrodes, humilation of genitals, riding senior citizens like donkeys...look, the truth is that a lot of people in Chelsea, NYC pay good money for this kind of treatment!

From what I hear, is there a chance that these GIs behind these scandals are in fact seeking grants from the National Endowment of the Arts?

Arabs are not exactly known for truthfulness.

I repeat my theory these torture claims are 100% bravo sierra.

Let's see how many of these claims hold up in courts martial. My guess: zero! I'll beleive it when we have a confession or corraborating witness. Notice how we haven't heard that? Or the names of anyone involved?

All of this is pure arab propaganda pure and simple. The iraq campaign hinges on getting a grip on this crap propaganda. To the terrorist, the malleable media is their howitzer or Tomahawk, and is just as effective.

"Oddly enough Michael Medved was saying that this is the first time liberals were outraged by anal sex."

HAH! And I was just kidding! Let's run with Medved's take anyway.

Let's go tit for tat. I want to see every atrocity that the Arabs do against the coalition forces and contractors.

We must have the same outrage too!!

After that - I want to see some apologies.

Clwyd said she had been told about the case because the woman has relatives in Britain.

Is she one of the anti-war folks ?

Just the fact that it comes from the AP makes this story suspect.

They are liars and purveyors of selective journalism, engaging in agitprop.

Goebbels would be proud to see his legacy being carried forward.

I put the NYT, CBS, ABC and NBC in this same category.

The Fifth Estate is the Fourth Reich.

Amen. She's one of Britain's fringe purple Kool-Aid drinkers, if I remember correctly. There aren't many broads I'd like to punch in the mouth, but I remember her as being one of them.

A certain junior senator from New Yawk comes to mind, as well.

I am posting these pictures so people can keep in mind just why these scumbags were in custody to begin with.

how long until the personal injury lawyers jump on this

An FR search on her name as keyword indicates she did support Blair's stance for the war. That said, I believe this story is total bunk.
