Anyone watching PBS about Abu Ghraib?

I am not sure what the program is, but it is interesting.

1. It's 'Now'

I just finished watching the show. Looks like they cleaned up their act? Did they really or just to let the reporters in?

Interesting show.

3. Yep, just saw the little screen gnat!

Thank you.

I am not sure if they cleaned up the act or not.

I was an MP in Iraq the first time around, and could not make an arrest without a Sergeant's permission. I guarantee that these reservists did not come up with the crap in those pictures on their own. This is a huge error in judgement that will affect Americas standing in the world for years to come.

7. Thanks for your service

I subscribe to the theory that you can be for the warrior and against the war.

8. I thought the first Gulf war was pretty much justified

Although oil I'm sure was a factor, there was a ligitimate reason for going over, and Bush Sr. seemed to realize the complete cluster fuck that going all the way into Baghdad would cause. Too bad his son didn't learn that from him.

2. I had heard that NOW was going to interview the

guy who was plastered all over the media standing on a box in the black hooded cape with the electrodes attached to his extremities. He said that he felt as though his eyes were going to pop out of his head when they were shocking him and every time he fell off the box they made him get back onto it.

Ahhhhh. . .he was a former mayor of an Iraqi town and had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the insurgency.

Freedom is again "on the march."

Alas when I got home from some errands it appeared they changed the programing. The generally replay it on Sunday mornings on my local affiliate though.

4. It is awful what was done

And more awful that only the "few bad apples" are paying for the error of a rotten tree.

[stellanoir]

5. yup

we're going to pay through the wazoo for this for eons. As well we should.

6. naked, blind-folded, and stacked on top of each other...

sounds like a fraternity.

9. "Cheerleading" by a few bad apples. What about Titan and CACI?

What about Pappas? Miller? Sanchez? Myers? Rumsfeld? Cheney? What about The War President, George W. Bush?
