Prison Torture CD sold for 50 cents in Iraq

[Joanne98]

This makes me furious.........

Among the pirated copies of Hollywood movies "Rocky 4," "Titanic" and "Terminator," there is a new blockbuster on the market stalls: a CD containing graphic images of abuse at the notorious jail.

"American Army" sits prominently on the shelves inside a Baghdad street market where men gather in silence to watch.

A voice-over of an imam extols viewers to fight against "Americans, crusaders and Zionists."

One Baghdad resident, Sabri Nasser, said he had come to the market to look for the video. "Now that I have it, I can see it with my own eyes. I see the crimes committed by the Americans against the Iraqi people."

Hassan Hamoud Gati said he had sold more than 6,000 copies of the video, at 50 cents apiece.

Bushco has ruined our good name for decades. I hate them for this. The damned Christian fundies wanted a Holy War. They did this on purpose. Why aren't the good Christians in this country standing up and saying, "enough is enough". The fundies are disgracing all Christians. You would think they would be mad about it. I would be.

1. I'm not mad they're selling it

Maybe more will get a chance to see it. Everyone should see them.

2. I just wish everybody in this world knew that there are two Americas.

They're lumping us all in together. Half of us aren't evil but we're going to get blamed for this anyway. grrrrrrr

[Deja Q]

3. The fundies are disgracing the human race as much as the Taliban does

Bushco* is a gaggle of petty religious terrorists no better than Osama or Hitler.

And many "Christians" believe everything that comes out of Bush's mouth. But they don't see him as being an equal to the people he is persecuting.

Of course the terrorists hate our freedoms. Forget not this: All terrorists want to destroy our freedoms. That's why the terrorist in the White House has a big sloppy orgasm over every bill and law passed that curtails or eliminates our freedoms. Don't ever forget that. Bush* is a terrorist. A terrorist who uses the Christian religion for his cum rag, just as Osama uses Islam for his. (both religions speak equally of violence and unbelievers and how to get to a happy afterlife. Both are science fiction, badly written, which is why both are a danger to humankind. I don't mind spirituality, but organized religion is a considerable part as to why the world is so fucked up as it is.)

I was going to post this originally as a stand-alone thread, but it makes more sense as a reply to a religious-themed thread.

Forgive me, my freedom to use the English language in the most disgusting way possible. For that's how it is with these animals in power. They can only get off over the violence and death they bring. They are not peacemakers or even human.

5. Your forgiven. I know how you feel.

I far as I'm concerned fundies of all religions are just pure evil. I'd like to put them all on an island together and make them fight to to death. It could be a new "reality show". We could call it "Fundie Survivor". lol

4. See? Them dumb Iraqis NEED America's ingenuity and know-how

Shoot, selling the CD for fifty cents? That hardly covers the cost of production! Don't they know anything about supply and demand? They could be getting ten times that, no sweat!

This is a cry for help to the Capitalist West! We dare not fail the Iraqi people. Stay the course.

NOTE: The above post is a sarcastic approximation of a certain mentality in this country. Don't get your panties in a bunch about it.

[Joanne98]

7. I have a feeling the Iraqi's are going to out capitalize the capitalists.

It's going to be fun to watch greedy repugs get ripped off constantly. It's just what they deserve. I love poetic justice.

6. The article doesn't say whether any new footage is on the cd (nt)

8. Yeah I know. But someone has them all I think. Even some Repugs

like McCain are saying to get it over with now. They obviously don't think the WH can stop the leaks. But the WH does. They are so delusional, sometimes I think they're all on drugs.
