2. the beheading is the most viciously effective bit of PR I've ever seen
This is what we are up against.

Bushco will stop at nothing to stay in power.

We've all suspected it. Now we know it's true.

3. Simple enough answer if it is heard and said
They wouldn't have had to worry a bit about the images of the acts being published if the acts had not been perpetrated

The pictures aren't causing the retaliation. Maybe speeding it up, but that's about all.

4. Come again.....
...MSNBC reported that this is the video Rumsfeld said he did not see? This was the video of prisoner abuses? I am confused.

7. NOTHING--I repeat--NOTHING in this day and time is coincidence...
...nothing "just happens conveniently." Everything, every action, has a weighted reaction. NOTHING is as it appears.

10. Well, Berg was being held by the US in Iraq.
And now he turns up dead, beheaded by those CLAIMING to be Al Qaida. How can we tell who it actually was?

9. Yes it is the release of pictures that pissed of the Iraqis not the actual
torture of detainees. Iraqis just don't like to look atpictures. They don't mind us torturing their people, they just don't want us to show them pictures of it.
