Has Hackworth responded yet to allegations that he's complicit in leaking the classifed images to the press?

I want to know when Hackworth and Fredericks are going to testify, in open session, on TV, under oath, before before the Armed Forces Committee on THEIR role in leaking photos and documents that're part of an ongoing criminal investigation.

Should I hold my breath?

Refresh my memory. Are we down to some homosexual porn pictures and a dogbite now? You would think we ran ten thousand children through shredders the way people are carrying on. Maybe there is something really bad coming up. Time will tell

I think this is exactly what we are down to. I'm still waiting for verification that there is anything much worse that hasn't been goosed up or staged. Frankly, this strikes me as tempest in a teapot as of now: Court Martial for the dummies; Drum the female BG warden out - and HARD (I'd like to see her serve time); Remind all our guards they represent America... Done.

The U.S. Embassy called the publication of these pornographic photos, with headlines alleging the involvement of U.S. soldiers, a "fundamental violation of journalistic integrity,"

"Violation of journalistic integrity?" lololol. The U.S. embassy in Cairo should know their customer a little better than that by now.

Zogby is a (D) himself; I'll digress, elections are always about the prez, and he had the edge IMHO....

The closest they'll come to an apology will be to claim that the websites in question were part of a Zionist conspiracy to fool the Arab media. In short: "It was da Jooz!"

>"The day after a WorldNetDaily report revealed that photos circulating in the Middle East that depict GI's raping Iraqi women were fake and had originated from pornography sites, the U.S. Embassy in Cairo issued a statement calling on Arab news outlets to publish retractions.

The embassy statement read, "We have done a thorough investigation of the origin of these photos and have conclusive evidence that they originated on a pornographic web site. They are clearly staged photos, done by actors, as the site itself states."
...........

Well, no one should be surprised. Some might recall the incident of the Corporal who had a photo of two Iraqi boys standing with him, the boys are holding up a sign which reads: "Lcpl Boudreaux killed my Dad, then he knocked up my sister!".

Turns out the photo was fake.
Here's the article about it:

http://www.acadiananow.com/news/html/6F5D84B4-AE97-47E0-972E-3F1CA51CB21B.shtml

Now, take a look at this site: It's a site where you can actually make a sign, with Boudreaux and the kids:

http://www.ryano.net/iraq/

Yet the media, Muslim organizations etc, insist on an investigation of this incident.

A Freeper actually thought it was an original picture, and posted this:

Don't believe half of the photos you see on the internet. You just can't, imo.

"I see you've been reading the Koran again! Good insight"

You forgot your sarcasm tag. But after seeing you tag line, I think you must have been sincere.

Told ya.

Do you remember the "white suprmecists" somewhere down in Texas -- I believe -- who were trying to start a race war here in the states by allegedy plotting to bomb places & then leaving trails that'd implicate whites?

Well what in the hell's the difference here with whoever's responsible for creating this crap?
This is just the kind of thing that'll flame the fires -- *&* testosterone -- of hatred in Muslim men, everywhere.
Who BTW, won't give a tinker's damn about "The Truth" when what it was they were looking for was a reason to "riot."
The modus operandi is always the same, the only change is the nationality.

If anyone ever wondered "what" it could be that'd be horrendous enough to spark a WWIII between the "west" & the Islamic world, this would have to be it.
Just watch.

The bastards have studied us well, & have turned our own information highways against us.

...just as they have our language.

"150 grains of FMJ behind the ear would cure them."

Much, much too messy, when a 45-grainer HP would do quite nicely behind the ear. I'd reserve the 150-grainer for a body shot at 200 yards; more sporting, ya see, and the clean up is not so time consuming. However, if you are into pinkish mists that expand like a newly created cosmos, a 150-grainer behind the ear is just the ticket.

It is a well-known fact that both the State Department and the Defense Department have a large number of Clintonista moles still on the payroll, and their allegiance is to the Clintons, not to America. Hildebeast let slip that fact in her questioning of Rumsfeld the other day, and he caught her slip.

Who leaked?
We need to demand that information.

This is one investigation I would actually be for.

You've got that right. They only care who does it when it's someone other than themselves to themselves....
