If not, will they be? They must really be awful if they are trying to suppress them this much. I heard that some agencies already have them, true?

1. Well, are you ready for this?
Frist and Warner were just on CNN and it is their opinion that the administration not release the pictures to the public. They are "afraid it might interfere with bringing the responsible parties to justice". They are also worried that it will further harm the troops in the theater.

THEY SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THAT BEFORE THEY ALLOWED THE TORTURE!

I think they are more afraid Americans would demand Rummy get the hell out.

They also said that they didn't see "any indication that these acts were carried out by other individuals." They are sticking to the 6-7.

I feel sick right now. We are going to cover up again to save political face.

2. They are likely to claim that release of evidence
would provoke more retribution killing and put the troops at greater risk,etc.

They will be classified for national security.

But, they are out there already. I know people who have them and have viewed them.

4. Yes-they'll allude to Berg and use 'retribution' to suppress the pics
Then the rest of the pics will be disseminated worldwide via internet and foreign media.

It is one more giant step in the WRONG direction for bush and his admin of fools.

5. I just can't believe these fucking idiots.
Again, they should have thought about all of this before they sanctioned torture. They are fucking idiots to the nth degree and I cannot believe they are "our leaders".

I am so tired of excuse after excuse coming from the republicans. They are failures. They just think they can hide that fact from us.
