Hmm

Well, the photos from the Abu Ghraib prison have pretty much ended any possibility of winning over the Middle East. It appears that top officials are shocked (shocked, I say!) that such abuses were going on right under their noses. That might have something to do with the fact that Gen. Myers, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff still hasn't read the report on the abuses, even though it was written in February.

This only came to light because the abusers were stupid enough to take pictures of how they were dehumanizing their prisoners. Salon even reported on this in March, and it's only now it's really getting attention.

Makes you wonder what's happening out in Guantanamo.
