Nothing I have seen so far can be labeled torture, just humiliation. The Geneva Conventions were violated when 60 Minutes II broadcasted the photo's, until then, there was no humiliation shown to the public or the world

With all due respect, no one is seriously saying this is torture.

But, if you see nothing wrong with stacking naked prisoners on top of each other, or loosing snarling dogs at naked prisoners, then you have a problem.

C'mon Sink, neither you or I know why the K-9 team had to be called in for that prisoner! we know they had linguist in the prison, so there was communication between the guards and the prisoner. I'm in no position to know, or will I speculate on why this prisoner is being confronted by K-9 Dogs, and I certainly don't think the guards just decided to call in the K-9's so they drag an innocent Iraqi out of his cell and sick the Dogs on the inmate for some kind of sadistic entertainment. That Prison is full of people who were trying to our Soldiers, and it's even said that that particular cell block housed the most dangerous of detainees. PLEASE DON'T FALL FOR THE LEFTIST SPIN ON THIS

As far as your concern over the Iraqi's being naked, we put suicide watch inmates in solitary naked, so they can't hang themselves with their under ware. I'm sure you can understand that it would be wise to make sure a bunch of suicidal Muslim fanatics aren't hiding shanks under the ankle length t-shirts they wear.

The prisoners in Iraq are nobody to be trifled with, they would kill one of those guards at the first opportunity. All this sensitivity over these terrorist being naked is a joke. Go ahead and insist on clothing them, but before you do, volunteer to stand guard over them as well as escorting them to the john
