Supreme Court Votes to Hide the Truth

Change we can believe in....NOT!

and how is it that cupcakes in the form of the periodic table is a feature story and this is not? WTF?

This is not news, it was going to happen. Please do not act all surprise, America takes what it wants, when it wants.

whatever you think you are covering up ...
karma will eventually expose...

The Government, especially in developed, first world countries, has become a monster that controls every aspect of people's lives. It also taxes them to starvation and poverty so it can procure the next best technological advances in military technology, to take the same people it taxes to war, so they can all go die for the security of a nation/government which enslaves them, then lie to them at every opportunity it finds. What a joke, how do people carry on voting?
Less government + less taxes = more freedoms

Governmental tactics remains predictable! Hide the relevant until it becomes irrelevant so nothing becomes of it. Afraid of the backlash they attempt to incinerate their trash. What Gulf of Tonkin? What WMD? Bunch of lies to get the peoples' approval upon entry.

Must be some bad-ass pictures

Vierotcha - I was thinking people want to satisfy their morbid curiosity and for some that's true but now I realize that if we hadn't been shown pictures of the holocaust victims we would have never fully understood the horror of it. So now I think you're right.

The majority of Justices that sit on the Supreme Court are Conservatives, and they always lean to the Right...This is not a credible Court, because they are anti poor, anti minority, anti labor, anti Liberal and strictly big business....They lost all credibility when they gave Bush the 2000 Election...The barbaric and sadistic behavior of Bush and his thugs, should not be hidden from the World...

Of course it has - it consists in majority of rabid Republicans nominated by Republican presidents and approved by a Republican majority. That's what Republicans do.

Isn't releasing the pictures too the media about the same as publishing pictures of a gory murder scene complete with the body? Isn't a verbal description of the crimes adequate?

I think that hiding the pictures makes us look as if we are not acknowledging what happened. What we let happen. What seemed to be standard operational procedure. Releasing the pictures will hopefully insure that it doesn't happen again and that we as a country take responsibility.

Seeing those pictures strikes at the soul of most viewers. They never forget the images and most people would do whatever they could to prevent it from happening again. Keeping them secret is like pretending it did not happen and I think that is worse in the eyes of the people that we offended.

I think its right to hide the pictures. Who needs to see them, give our country another black eye internationally as we are trying to turn the corner from that. I think its the right decision and will help us in the short, and long term. We all know what happened, we don't need pictures.

I think it's a little bit to late for that isn't it? Isn't the truth already out?

They were sexually humiliated (forced homosexual acts among other things) by sick sexual sadists, smeared with mud and shit "pastes", burned, electrocuted, force contortioned, prodded, raped (gender didn't matter) , semi-crushed, forced to fuck themselves with bananas, suffocated, shot with rubber bullets till their buttocks bled, murdered and packed in ice, tortured with attack dogs, etc...

Kudos and Thanks to the internet, it's quite difficult to hide the truth these days...

Our Supreme Court needs to get over themselves. I am thoroughly convinced they are not a real court, especially since they put that lame brain numb skull in the oval office that we had previously. I don't even want to mention his name

It would be much better for the United States if the information was released. Denial does nothing to help us in this instance.

Almost as much as saving their own asses from being killed : anybody not covered by Congress' 'Do Not Enforce Our Laws' edict of 2002 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Servicemembers'_Protection_Act is theoretically subject to rules established by the US at Nuremberg. They are scary enough German generals subject to the same international agreement are bugging out of Afghanistan because Germany has a history of actually enforcing its laws these days.

Fuck our governments, they don't do anything useful...

Great picture.

Jubal i vehemently disagree, i believe the bible is completely relevant to todays society, without God in our nation we wouldnt be able to have the religous freedoms we have now. secular societies are known to be the most repressive on religous freedoms and usually have a state religion forcing people to attend.

alot of the pressure to supress these pics was from the iraqi govt for fear of the pics enciting already hostile muslums to increase sectarian violence

The Supreme Court, like the Bible, is quickly becoming irrelevant to social justice.

This is bullshit. I want to know why.

This is depressing but not unexpected.

wow.... i wonder how much george "AWOL" bush paid to get this done? Or maybe daddy asked for the favor... nothing new when our so called "justice" system is bought by the powerful and wealthy.
