She deserved the conviction for simply being a party to the picture taking at the very least!
Highly unprofessional conduct. The punishment should have gone all the way up to that female general who was supposed to be in charge. She holds the ultimate fault.
Couldn't agree with you more....but the Gen's career is over and she got off without jail time.......I hope the court cuts Lyndie some slack...how she passed her aptitude tests to get in the Army is beyond me.

You've got that right - but also the Pentagon should have demanded that the pictures never got published!
I just wonder how many of the good guys got killed, and how many more terrorists got drawn into Iraq because of the prisioner humiliation???
Can you imagine the press getting the ok to releasing photos like that during WWII?? I can't!
I agree. And while it's obviously better to be embarrassed than headless, there's no excuse for the way those troops acted. It just gives MSM and lefty wack jobs more ammo to put in their gun pointed right at Uncle Sam's head...
