Major General Taguba, who retired in January 2007 who supports the President's decision not to release the photographs, today said, "These pictures show torture, rape and every indecency."

He described the pictures more specifically. Journalists who saw the classified photographs are also starting to tell us more.

Obama should not be withholding the photos. They will certainly all leak out. This may be a saving grace for him but it is unprincipled. Some journalists have already seen all of them. Each day we learn more.

War does terrible things to all soldiers and all civilians. The American people should know the price our soldiers and the people we fight with pay.
