new abu ghraib pictures
a couple of weeks ago i tried to track down the latest news on the "darby pictures" - more torture pix from Abu Ghraib that were to be released on June30.
i didnt have much luck then - the best that i could find out was that the DOD lawyer had asked for a delay to july 22 - aka today. i couldnt find out the result of that appeal - but we lets assume that it was successful. that means we should have some pretty disgusting visuals to go with our saturday morning breakfast. there are 144 pics and four videos. for an adminstration that was tanking last week, and tanked even further this week, we might imagine that they'll soon be dreaming of the days when they had double-digit ratings.
my only concern is that maybe the usg somehow told everyone to shut up - i cant find any news of it in the media, and the aclu seems to be equally quiet. the last release from them that i could find from them was on june 2 when they said that they expected the pictures to be released 'within 6 weeks'.
