True but this isnt the boyscouts its the military. They take pictures were they are unauthorized and it is a felony.

I cant crawl into the cockpit of an F/A-22 and snap away photos. just by taking photos of these prisoners they were breaking the law abuse or not.

For some thats concidered a very sexually pleasing and arousing action.

Just cause they are not allowing cameras in the prisons does not automatically mean they are trying to hide something.

no but having a big scandal about illegal and immoral treatment of prisoners come out.

then implementing a rule that does more to stop the exposure of this type of behavior than it does to actually stop the behavior itself, should raise a few red flags in the mind of anyone who isn't burying his head in the sand.

I think a more appropriate response would be to do what you can to stop the abuses, then welcome any type of system that makes the recording of treatment and report abuses, so transparent that there could be no doubt to anyone that things have changed. this would insure that there is no way anyone could get away with these abuses.

to say that you have solved the problem, and then block the area from view doesn't seem right.

It wasn't a camera that turned those people in,it was an individual.

Making sure there are no cameras would eliminate pictures for souvenirs,which is the reason for the new rule,not to "hide" anything.

I wasn't comparing US soldiers to nazies; I'm just saying that I do understand the reason why are you banning cameras in those camps of yours.
Those pics can be so... er... unpleasant to see in news (or in courts)

It does not matter. America is above the law. Our troops will never be tried for crimes in any international courts, and we are above the Geneva convention.

And which might give us a clue on why you guys get attacked so much and often. When justice isn't served through judicial means, people tend to take on their own.

From the looks of it before too long we will be banning Iraqi's from Iraqi prisons LOL.

Oh BOO freekin HOO!
I am getting soo freekin tired of hearing had badly these murdering scumbags were treated in PRISON.

Was there treatment wrong ? Hell yes it was very stupid and unprofessional and the guilty are being punished .

But to keep going on and on because they were forced to play neeked twister for crying out loud.

Atleast they where not having electrodes hooked up to there nutt sacs !

People we aint talking about poor old victims of war here .
We are talking about the murdering stunninghunks who if given half a chance would shoot our guys in the back!

So if they were embarASSed alittle get freekin over it .
