I cant get the page to load up, but im guessing its the well publicised pictures of the iraqi prisoners being mistreated by what looks to be a US or UK troop (the person is wearing the uniform, some have said in an incorrect and unrealistic manor (all pouches undone)).
I have not seen enough evidence to believe these pictures and stories. And untill i do, i will not pass judgment on the subject.

As we all know that the military is not a place for heaven....especially in Iraq...
Hate makes ppl crazy....
Lets just say that....everyone should decide in himself about the reality of these pics...

I cannot comment because the link goes nowhere....most of the time a link should end in the file name .html . That could be a reason why it doesn't work.
I'm sure the troops from every army have done something before that most would consider horrible. There are many sides to this current situation...the US likes to control everything and many of the people in these counties do not value life at all. HEY 5 year old,,,,go blow yourself up..GOD will love you.

I know about those pics, and I know were the topic will end if we start a discussion about them
I hope you won't see the fact I'm closing this as an abuse, censorship or whatever, but remember JW is not a political forum but basically a car related one of course we have a "general" chat, but such topics always create to many flames and anyway everybody has his own opinions that rarely change thanks to a hot discussion on a messageboard...
