1. Wish I knew
Perhaps he's been threatened.

2. I don't think they are in his possession
I believe he saw them, but I've never heard that he possessed them.

5. I thought, for some reason, that the Washington Post had the videos.
I could be wrong.

3. He mentioned why in Chain of Command...
which I've just finished. Basically, he said it would be overkill, and he didn't want to disrespect those who were tortured and their families. He felt the reaction would intensify already angered feelings.

6. Fuck that
They should be out there!!

And, from his interview on The Daily Show last night, what's gone on at Gitmo is even worse!

4. from what I gathered
He viewed them but they were not in his possession.

Kiddie porn laws prohibit him from duplicating them.

They're that atrocious. n/l
