    911 & Abu Gharib photos

    Why doesn't Salon print some 4 1/2 year old photos of the impacts of the 3 airplanes at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon? This is the kind of reminder that America needs. Many of the posts to this article have said that they are ashamed of America for the Abu Gharib abuses. I agree that they are terrible, but the people who did this have been punished. The shame should go to those who have forgotten about the "animals" who took the lives of nearly 3,000 INNOCENT lives on 9/11/2001. The vast majority of our men and women in the armed forces are serving honorably in our place and we all should be grateful and proud for their service.

    God Bless the USA!
