Will the "pictures" stop?
Chertoff said it's "not easy to look at the pictures", so how long will it be before the "pictures" stop??

That seems to be the logical approach for this admin..

Pictures make them look bad, so no more pictures

what we don;t know cant hurt "them"

1. Yep, just like if Americans citizens don't see pictures of
coffins of servicemen/women killed in Iraq....they don't exist.

It worked for the admin. for a while.

3. You already can only see 2 second loops of the same video all day.
Each day, about 1 minute of new video is allowed to leak out and they show it all day. Please, if I am wrong, tell me. But that it exactly how it seems to me.

5. Wondering that too
Its dangerous to have Americans watch the death of tens of thousands of their fellow American men women and children on their TVs in near real-time. This situation is so horrible that I have no words.
