Photographs of alleged prisoner abuse which Barack Obama is attempting to censor include images of apparent rape and sexual abuse, it has emerged.
At least one picture shows an American soldier apparently raping a female prisoner while another is said to show a male translator raping a male detainee.
Further photographs are said to depict sexual assaults on prisoners with objects including a truncheon, wire and a phosphorescent tube.
Another apparently shows a female prisoner having her clothing forcibly removed to expose her breasts.
Detail of the content emerged from Major General Antonio Taguba, the former army officer who conducted an inquiry into the Abu Ghraib jail in Iraq.
Allegations of rape and abuse were included in his 2004 report but the fact there were photographs was never revealed. He has now confirmed their existence in an interview with the Daily Telegraph...

Yeah it was in that Zimbardo talk thing wasn't it?
And there were pictures too?
Or was that a different vid with Zimbardo in it :S
I don't know, but is really sad. All cringed hard when we watched it in class.

Those were the pictures that were not that bad and were felt releasable. Now there is a debate about potentially *worse* pics that were not released. 2000 of them.

Women prisoners in Iraqi jails are not charged with anything.
They are kept for male fun.
President Obama has banned photos which show what Bush policies did in Iraq inculding torture and rape. ACLU says Obama administration is covering up crimes of Bush administration.
They have said that thousands of photos kept in Washington show horrific acts commited by U.S. military and private security contractors in Abu Ghraib and Bagram prisons.
The U.S. soldiers simply grab some Iraqi females to have fun with them.
These troops have been away from their wives and girlfriends for a long time.
They are sexually frustrated. Many commit homosexual acts. Other soldiers
rape girls and hide the crime: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8062705.stm
When soldiers go on long patrols in Iraqi streets, sometimes
they break into homes and take local women for sexual pleasure.
Often women are raped there and then; but sometimes they are
brought back to the military base for repeated sexual assaults.
Some reports speak of two or three soldiers all ripping off clothes from
the poor woman and doing all sort of evil things to her.
Other soldiers just watch and laugh. These photos
were banned Bush and also by Obama. They show even high ranking officers commit
full rape of Iraqi women. Male prisoners are forced to watch their women
being humilated. Some pictures show Iraqi prisoners being forced to rape their
own women. Soldiers force men and women to do other degrading acts with dogs and pigs.
Not only Iraqi women are treated this way, but
U.S. troops are raping American female soldiers who serve with them in Iraq.
Many soldiers commit suicide after these acts.
Reports say that due to depression, the suicide rates are
rising for U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Much more in available on the internet. If you search for
it, you will be shocked what Bush and Cheney allowed in U.S. military do commit
the name of freedom and democracy.
Last month, in May 2009, Guardian reported that Obama
gave orders that these photo be locked up for ever.
The New York Times reported that CIA has already destroyed videos tapes showing
what soldiers did to women in Iraqi jails. Torture and other abuse was filmed by military
interrogators. But after US judge demanded the release of
these videos, CIA quickly burnt the tapes.
All experts say that this is a shame for America. World image of
U.S. has changed forever. Its now beyond repair.
Obama is making it worse by brushing things under the carpet.
He should be bringing the culprits to court and handing out heavy sentences.
Otherwise, U.S. will seen by the world as an evil and a criminal nation.
Husband or Bagram? What's Dr Aafiya's story?
