'NYT' Obtains 10 Emails, with Photos, Sent by Accused Abu Ghraib Abuser
NEW YORK The New York Times has obtained 10 previously undisclosed e-mails, including attached photos, sent by Spc. Charles A. Graner Jr., now on trial in the Abu Ghraib abuse scandal, around November 2003.

In one of the graphic messages, titled “just another dull day at work,” Graner wrote, "The guys give me hell for not getting any pictures while I was fighting this guy,"referring to a photograph of a bound and naked detainee howling with pain, his legs bleeding.

(snip)

One message referred to Take Your Children to Work Day with the comment, "how about send a bastard to hell day?" Attached was a photograph of a detainee's head bloodied beyond recognition.

Another photograph showed him stitching a cut over a prisoner’s eye. Graner wrote: "Things may have gotten a bit bad when we were asking him a couple of questions. O well."

1. Sometimes....
Sometimes, with all the bad things going on, against human and animal rights, and with constant killing, it makes me wonder I why keep living in a world like this. I couldnt imagine stepping on a spider, never the less torturing or killing another human being.

2. Yeah, in or out of the military, this guy
deserves what he got. He would have been just as hateful wherever he wound up.

3. The Nazis that ordered him to do so belong in headstocks too
The Nazis in the chain of command, all the way to the top, deserve no better.

4. it just occurred to me
that the chimp and Graner are the same person. They are identical, except one ended up as pres, one as a guard.

5. "Graner gets 10 years. O well."
His e-mails are enough to turn your stomach. He is a disgrace to the uniform.
