Why we're publishing the new Abu Ghraib photos

America -- and the world -- has the right to know what was done in our name.

    Your Publishing these Why?

    Why rehash the incidents... to keep the incitment going? Soldiers could possibly die by the photo's you provide to the world. To hide behind the Freedom of the Press is scandolous. As Churchhill so eloquently "...War is Hell". Our US soldiers are in a war... and need to do whatever it takes to get the enemy to talk. Your decision to publish these trivial photo's is tantamount to TREASON, inciting the enemy... I personally believe you should be thrown in GITMO... or at least move to the Middle East...

    —John F. Murphy
