i'm sure someone would've published them by now if possible, and they all keep saying that they will come out, all at once or dripped slowly, and torturously. but we really can't find them, even with the mighty internet? seems odd.

1. will the highest bidder step forward?
They are 'prolly locked up tighter than virgins at a baptist tent revival.

lawyers got a lock on 'em or,
any trooper that has a spare set, or any other set, is hanging on to keep his nose clean. They dont wanna get 'lynndied'
or someone is holding out for the highest bidder, in which case the London tabloids will get them first

2. I think Col. Hackworth has many more
I think he's waiting to see what kind of coverup will take shape before he starts leaking what he's got... He sounds like he knows quite a lot about this on Larry King friday.

SFTT Role in Uncovering Abu Ghraib Abuses

The past few weeks we were all very astounded and disgusted by the pictures and tales of abuse coming out of Iraq with regard to our U.S. forces and the treatment of Iraqi prisoners. On Friday, May 7th, the Secretary of Defense and Commander of the Joint Chiefs of Staff were hauled before two congressional committees to answer questions of accountability in this sordid scandal. On Tuesday, May 11th, General Antonio Taguba was testifying before congress regarding his report - the "15-6 Report" - and his findings.

Now for the real bombshell; SFTT's website provided the conduit for the key contact when William Lawson, the uncle of one on the MP's facing charges, and a retired USAF Master Sergeant, contacted Roger Charles who was working as a consultant with 60 Minutes II. Roger had placed a request for information about the involuntary discharge of four Reservists from the 320th MP Battalion on the SFTT web site. An automatic response link went straight to Charles.

Information provided by Lawson and follow-up contacts allowed the CBS production team to develop additional information about the 372nd MP Company, the 320th MP Battalion and the 800th MP Brigade. The subsequent intensive investigation produced the 60 Minutes II program seen on April 28 that exposed the abuses at Abu Ghraib, including the now historical photographs.

13. That's a British photo. The Daily Mirror now says its a fake
That's a British photo. The Daily Mirror now says its a fake photo of a British soldier peeing on a prisoner, but the editor insists the photo is real, and he was fired for insisting that photo is real.

4. I have a feeling that many news outlets have received copies
But they have been told not to release them or else.

6. Look In Shrubya's Underwear Drawer...

Behind the socks and underneath the stack Howard the Duck Comics.

'Course the photos are all stuck together, but they're there.

He thinks Pickles doesn't know he has 'em.

9. There are supposed to be 1600-odd
photos now. And none of the new ones got leaked? Unlikely.
