Possible? I'd say obvious.


I don't think anyone has drawn any concrete conclusions. Investigations
are ongoing. Let's see where they lead before we jump to any conclusions.


Seymour Hirsch noted that the picture of the Iraqi with the dogs involved
an ENTIRELY DIFFERENT UNIT than those pictures previously shown on, among
other things, 60 Minutes II. He details that over a 12 minute period two
cameras were used. Now there were two soldiers with the dogs, who
obviously didn't take the pictures. That's three people right there,
assuming one of the dog handlers was also one of the photographers in other
shots, if not, then we can get up to four. In one shot of the first set of
pictures you can see four or more soldiers (from another unit). Right
there, that's more than the oft quoted "6 or 7" bad apples. You don't even
have to be able to count very high to realize it was IMPOSSIBLE for only "6
or 7" to be involved. This isn't "jumping to conclusions" or anything, it
is just some common sense and a little math any third grader should be able
to handle.

Fine. Two more people have already been court martialed and I'm sure
there are more to come. As I said, the investigations are ongoing. What
is it with you and others here that you have to have the whole story
RIGHT NOW!? It's going to take time to get to the bottom of this. Is
that so unreasonable?
