And then: a soldier holding a leash tied around a man's neck in an Iraqi prison. He is naked, grimacing and lying on the floor.

Mixed in with more than 1,000 digital pictures obtained by The Washington Post are photographs of naked men, apparently prisoners, sprawled on top of one another while soldiers stand around them. There is another photograph of a naked man with a dark hood over his head, handcuffed to a cell door. And another of a naked man handcuffed to a bunk bed, his arms splayed so wide that his back is arched. A pair of women's underwear covers his head and face.

Better get a shipload of plasma flat screen televisions ready the Kerryiacs are going to insist we provide one for every terrorist detainee in the world.

That's the same bull-dyke looking woman in one of the earlier released photos with naked Iraqi men.

She probalby has a deep hatred of men in general.

Not only should the soldiers (using the term loosly for those who did this crap) have the book thrown at them, but so should their commanding officers. There is no way this could have been totally unknown to them.

I have a question - how can we expect any Americans caputured to be treated if we have our own treating Iraqi's that way? Not that the Islamo-Nazi freaks really care about human rights, but this just gives them even more ammo....

Who took the digital photos and why?

Maybe all these naked Iraqis think they're auditioning for "Can you be a Porn Star?"

[Eurotwit]

I have no idea.

CAR BOMB IN BAGHDAD JUST NOW

I've been wondering why anyone would want to take pictures of such behaviour.

[PhiKapMom]

Media will cover the abuse by a few nutcases and skip the bigger picture -- like Americans drug through the street or the bomb going off IMHO!

This has been under investigation since January and now WP is getting all these photo's? Something smells about this whole deal. Hope they throw the book at the culprits who are torturing the prisoners.

The thought occurs to me that McAuliffe + Kerry et. al. have a different game up their sleeve & Karl Rove better be ready - they used the "Bush DUI" smear at the last moment in the last election. The "Bush Lied" stuff is old, except for the most strident Bush-Haters. They are turning these types ala Lt. from weekend DNC radio "soldiers are for killing, not nation building" and now others too spilling the dirt.

"Embedded reporters"--working for the Demonrats??

[GretchenM]

When did these soldiers have time to do anything of an official nature in that prison?

[PhiKapMom]

You and me both -- something about all of this doesn't add up! That's why I would like to know who is behind the picture taking. Especially the way kerry and the media are acting.

[PhiKapMom]

Could be -- didn't realize we still had embedded reporters.

Are these people committing the acts of abuse Reserves?

All I know is that something is wrong here and it is meant to harm President Bush's re-election. I swear it is almost like this is a set up!

[woofie]

I dont know what to think but whoever wanted to hurt this administration and this nation sure did a good job

[sweetjane]

The initial gut reaction is whatta way for Americans to demonstrate American ideals. Then after some deep breathing exercises, I have to ask who took these photos?

[PhiKapMom]

I know! That tells me it is the Clintons! I swear they are working with the terrorists to undermine this Administration.

[arjay]

Maybe we should ban cameras.

The behavior is disgusting, there is no doubt.

Like others I would like to know who was taking the pictures and why are they releasing them to the press.

BTW, Love your tag line.
