At this point the best thing the President can do is release all the photos.

... he said, rather dejectedly. Too bad they didn't stay secret!

The actions of a few have disgraced the noble service of many... The situation involved the systematic abuse of Iraqi POWs by a handful of American soldiers, both male and female—numbering around a dozen.

It's not quantity that counts, it's quality!

Following the media explosion of coverage last week, President Bush went before the Arab Street and groveled for their forgiveness. That’s right, the President of the United States went before a group of people who understand only strength and displayed weakness.

He did?!? WHEN? Frankly, I would have liked to see such groveling!

He (the President) could have explained that under a Constitutional Republic, people who perpetuate evil are punished accordingly, but no, the President groveled for forgiveness from a position of weakness.

Can you say "overly dramatic?"

Millions of innocent Iraqis who knew much worse under Saddam Hussein saw this...

The old "they're used to much worse" argument.

Why was this apology even necessary? After all, we have received no such apology and seen no such outrage for the four American civilian contractors who were burned to death, mutilated, and strung from a bridge last month. We have received no such apology and seen no such outrage for the near 800 American military personnel who have died to ensure freedom and liberty for the Iraqi populace—and very little Arab/Muslim outrage for the recent beheading of American civilian contractor Nick Berg.

Maybe we would have if the Iraqis had any sort of valid government that could speak for them?

These soldiers in no way represent the American military as a whole, and if the Iraqi people don’t understand this by now, they, quite frankly, aren’t worth defending.

The old "they're all ungrateful bastards" argument.

Apparently, there are nearly 250 photos depicting Iraqi POWs in various states of undress. Shocking? Yes, but not comparable to the daily kidnapping, rape, torture, and murder of Iraqi children by Uday Hussein under his father’s regime.

Once again... the old "they're used to much worse" argument.

Despite the President’s decisions, it is truly a shame that a dozen or so soldiers can take all the attention from the noble efforts of 140,000+ others—fighting and dying for freedom and liberty in a country that has only known terror and oppression. Only in America.

Yes, that's right... only in America... is there a press free enough to broadcast images of abuse at the hands of our soldiers. Only in America... can the public decry the actions of it's government. And only in America... can you leave if you don't like it.
