Finally more Abu Ghraib material has surfaced--this time Salon.com has [http://salon.com/news/abu_ghraib/2006/03/14/introduction/|posted it] on their site. I'm not going to look at it all--but I am glad it's available. I'm sure there is more that has yet to be released and I hope it is eventually released, too. I think it's important that we know what our government is up to and that we understand that torture is bad (and just how bad is torture).
It makes no sense for someone who has morals to torture someone under any circumstances. In fact, the phrase "moral torturer" is a contradiction in terms.
Are morals only there until they're inconvenient?
I don't think so.
If not torturing someone means that I or someone I love will die, then that's the way it goes.
I'd rather die with morals and live without them.
What follows is just a taste of the pics.
