1. Shameless kick because I believe most people have not SEEN this
It's one thing to read the Washington Post transcripts where the victims talk about what happened, it's another to see one of them break down on camera. We simply cannot let this be buried by the US media. There is STILL a lack of reporting on the women and children abuse, although the world knows about it and has reported on it.

2. Thank you Dac_76 . . .
. . . I hadn't seen that.:grr:

That clip should be required viewing by all Americans before they go to the polls in November. I don't think Americans believe that Abu Grhaib is about much more that a handfull of rogue soldiers who are now being court martialed. I think they figure that once Lyndie England is in prison, it will all be over and done with — no harm no foul. This clip has obviously been overlooked or suppressed by the American media. That is a shame and it should be changed. It needs to be sent to Nightline.

3. More videos of the torture must be leaked
Tragically, that's the only way the issue will bust through our media.

Who was the American(?) being interviewed?
