15. Agreed, agreed, agreed!
There's no excuse for what they've done. Absolutely not! But photos or not, they deserve a trial. They should be arrested and taken to trial immediately, and when found guilty they should go to the place where there is no darkness. No question. But to deny them - the individual soldiers - a trial of some sort, would be against our own policies and ideals.

And beyond, far far beyond the evils inflicted on the PoWs, we need to recognize that the soldiers and contractors who committed these crimes are also traitors to their country and their fellow soldiers. Many Americans will DIE as a result of these photos and actions.

We (anti-war activists) are often accused of emboldening the enemy because we are fighting against the war. This, however, is a clear action of emboldening and aggrivating the situation - no questions asked.
