But Rumsfeld warned the committee that the worst was yet to come. He said he had looked at the full array of unedited photographs of the situation at Abu Ghraib for the first time Thursday night and found them “hard to believe.”

“There are other photos that depict incidents of physical violence towards prisoners, acts that can only be described as blatantly sadistic, cruel and inhumane," he said. “... It’s going to get a good deal more terrible, I’m afraid.”

Rumsfeld did not describe the photos, but U.S. military officials told NBC News that the unreleased images showed U.S. soldiers severely beating an Iraqi prisoner nearly to death, having sex with a female Iraqi female prisoner and “acting inappropriately with a dead body.” The officials said there was also a videotape, apparently shot by U.S. personnel, showing Iraqi guards raping young boys.

That chick that's appearing in all the photos? Kimmy England or something? She got sent home on account of her getting pregnant.

I could easily spend 10 minutes just thinking about everything that entails.

The sickness AND the sick comedy.

Agreed. This is going to piss allot of people off, but welcome to the world of a Reservist Military. Thanks to a decade of slashing cuts in active duty military.

...whod'a thunkit?

Whats going on is the fantastical idea that we (the U.S.) have the capabiltity and desire (if needed) to fight a two or three front war with the forces at hand. Naturally.. this comes from having politically appointed civilian service secretaries.
