US Solders Posting Pictures of Iraqis killed to access porn
by 1planet1people
Wednesday, Sep. 28, 2005 at 10:59 PM
The pictures below are graphic and should not be viewed by those who do not wish to see the reality of US foreign policy.
6th_marines_112_cooked_iraqi.jpg, image/jpeg, 600x402
The solders in the war against the Iraqi people have found a new way to violate the Geneva Convention. The Geneva Convention requires respect for "the remains of persons who have died for reasons related to occupation or in detention resulting from occupation or hostilities and those of persons not nationals of the country in which they have died as a result of hostilities." Yet, members of the occupational force are publishing photos on http://www.nowthatsfuckedup.com for access to porn sections. Below are a few examples of these photos. The pictures are being posted to expose the criminal nature of the acts and to help build a movement that will demand that the terrorist actions of the United States be stopped and the criminal elements within Iraq be withdrawn immediately. Though many of the pictures did not come with explanations, there are pictures here, and more on the site with US troops posing with deceased Iraqis. Further, whether the individuals were killed by US troops, or by the defenders of the Middle East, US Solders are forbidden to post the pictures in a disrespectful manner (such as on an adult internet site). There is one picture that I did alter, the one of the young lady that the solder took that exposed here genitalia and wound at the same time. I did not feel that here genitalia was of significance and that there was no reason to post it uncensored.

A solder thinks that it is sexy to take a picture of a Iraqi woman's private parts and her wound at the same time. I censored this picture out of respect.

To all who know or "think they know", about the truth of war.
Where would YOU be if this war was in America? I could bet you would probably be out protesting it! AM I RIGHT? You would probably get your stupid self shot and we wouldn't have to worry about people like you , and your freedom of speech that my husband, brothers, friends, a loved ones fight for.
Do you think our soldiers have freedom of speech over there? NOPE, because they are more worried about their lives and protecting the lives of others to worry about such a little thing? I guarantee, we may have not lost as many soldiers, but we have a lot of soldiers coming back really messed up because WAR is not pretty. You might not support our troops, and you may not like War, but the TRUTH is WAR HAPPENS and you need to get real if you think that you are going to live in PEACE foreever. There are bad people out there that hate us, and would like nothing more then to see our country crumble. If you think that you are causing some type of discomfort to the american troops by not supporting them, then you really are stupid. They have a lot more to worry about. Truth is noone is perfect, and its sad that these photos have gotten out, but the what about the posting of our soldiers being tortured or the bedheadings? If you don't support America and OUR TROOPS then LEAVE! Go get yourself a good job in Mexico or Canada. Oh, but wait! Isn't that why they are all coming here? To live the American Dream.....
Someday god forbid the inevitable happen and war ever accur again on our American soil. Where are you going to be hiding? My Husband, brothers, friends and loved ones will be protecting your stupid ass, just so you can continue to be one.

Domestic War is Not the Same as Invasion
by johnk
Sunday, Dec. 10, 2006 at 4:54 AM
>Where would YOU be if this war was in America? I could bet you would probably be out protesting it! AM I RIGHT?
A domestic war is not the same as an invasion.
Invasions tend to cause people to fight the invasion, and are willing to take heavy casualties. That's just reality. People put aside their differences to fight the invader, and that's exactly what would happen here. A lot of leftists would take arms to repel the invader.
Likewise, in Iraq, though we had a lot of support from people hostile to Saddam, there were also a lot of people who joined in the resistance, despite their differences. Many of our supporters are now, no longer eager supporters, and almost everyone there wishes the US to leave. Eventually, the political winds will really shift, and the resistance will start actively recruiting among US allies. (I'm certain they already accept people who switch sides, but at some point they will recruit.)
Then, we're really done for. End of game. No "two year exit plans" because the entire situation will fall apart. The logistics of the occupation will become known, and it'll be unsafe.
The Iraqis have, reportedly, lost over 600,000 lives (on all sides), while we're only at 2,700 or so. With numbers like that, there's no way the US can "win" anything. Pretty soon, they will lose nearly 10% of their population to this war. The US, and by extension, Western Democracy, will have no credibility.
Invading other countries to "spread democracy" has as much legitimacy as the USSR had in invading countries to spread communism. In fact, it has even less legitimacy, because, at least the USSR waited until there were some communist revolutionaries in the country before conducting the invasion.
The only way to spread democracy is from below. Like they did in South Africa, where, things are still screwed, but they did manage to change the government without a coup, and without a full-blown civil war. They got support from people all over the world, including people in the USA. For that the people who helped can be proud.
The government of the USA, however, cannot be proud, because this country ignored all requests by the democratic forces in South Africa to carry out a sanction against the state. By ignoring the request, the administration effectively helped prop up apartheid while the popular sentiment was to tear it down.
The lesson in this is that democracy must be built from the ground up.
The other lesson is that if the administration says they're "spreading democracy," they're probably making it up.

Okay, the pix you found and are spreading with "your" site were found guilty of content being offensive in every context as you have stated. They have since closed the site and convicted the private publishers. Now, YOU too will follow should you continue to spread the the same.
War, is an act of human indecency that has happened for centuries in every culture but has been "softened" in the public eyes of the US. Yes, it's horrific in nature and will never be a pleasant aspect of life no matter what view or lens you view it from. Spreading fear nor hatred isn't the answer either as you are doing here with your site. Our own Civil War was just as gruesome along with all the torture and death involved in "developing" the NEW World when we first encountered the Indians here in "America",
Death, torture, and murder has been a part of EVERY Nations birth, rule, and growth long before our own history.
Does this make war okay? No. Does this make it something to be passive about? No. But yanking peoples chains in a childish manner like this site is far from helping matters at any angle you view your site. Getting involved in more "productive" means would suffice and better aid your goals.
Human life is precious, no matter the origin. The human heart and soul is what's so dangerous and need of great repair in this world.

You seem to forget that the war in Iraq is not about defending American's constitutional rights. Please explain to me how the Iraqi people are jeapordizing our rights as a democratic country? This is a war over oil, and of resentment over the Persian Golf war turnout. George W. Bush just couldn't accept that his father didn't "finish up" during the Gulf War. I understand that Sadam was a tyranical leader, however that is a matter that the people of Iraq needed to deal with. We have absolutely no right meddling in that country's affairs. If we did then we would be at war with much of Africa, South Korea, the Philipines Etc. Etc. Since when are we allowed to decide who and how another country should be run?

I think that now, even with the dominance of mainstream "big media" distorting the truth and reporting selectively for the powers that be, the ugly truths of US soldiers behaviour in Iraq is coming out in the open. Pictures such as these, pictures from abu ghraib, the story of the 14 year old Iraqi girl Abeer raped and killed along with her family in mahmoudiyah by US soldiers, are just the tip of the iceberg. It is becoming obvious now that human rights violations are taking place on a daily basis in Iraq, and contrary to popular misconception, most of it is down to US soldiers rather than "insurgents" or secterian conflict. Its just a shame the internet wasnt mainstream when US soldiers were commiting attrocities in Vietnam.

First of all I would like to point out only the people who have served in a war or have family, friends, or relatives serving in the war can even begin to speak about the wars truths. For one unless you've been in a war or know someone who has you don't have any first hand knowledge about it. Therefore you are only repeating what you heard from some other unreliable source that has probably never been close to the war to even understand it. As for these pictures come on what did you expect them to be. A war is not some cuddle fest or pillow fight it’s fucking WAR! If you look in the dictionary it will say war is a state of usually open and declared armed hostile conflict between states or nations. There you go armed hostile conflict between states or nations. They fucking bombed the U.S.A first and now we are in a hostile conflict because of it. Some of you anti war assholes seem to forget how this all started. We were attacked and now it’s our job to go take care of the assholes that did it. Otherwise we run the risk of being attacked again and again. This war is not for revenge or pride, but for the safety of the citizens who still stand after 9/11. Now you may not agree with war but you should still support the U.S.A and our troops.
Look at it this way: Your sister/brother is getting married, but you hate the groom/bride. They are still getting married despite your protest. This leaves you with a choice. You love your sister/brother so you support her/his decision to marry even if you don’t agree with it or you leave her/his life. Now picture your sister/brother as the U.S.A and the groom/bride as the Iraqi War. You may not like the war, but the U.S.A is fighting it despite your protest. You have a choice. You love the U.S.A and the freedom you have so you support your nation and its people even if you don’t agree with the U.S.A being in war. Or you can leave the U.S.A.
Like your sister/brother you can’t only support your nation when things are good and not when it’s bad. No matter what the decision may be if you love your nation you’ll support it no matter what! Through thick and thin; through right and wrong!

You people are unbelievable. have you no concept of what you demand? These men and woman were sent there by their country. They were told what to do. Every single one of them would rather be at home with friends and family. If you believe that there is something wrong with them posting pictures, I ask you instead if there is something wrong with you people criticizing them. Have you been there, do you know what it is like to be shot at. To every day wonder if that little kid over there that you gave chocolate to for the past week will today come up to you with a bomb attached to him. DO NOT CRITICIZE WHAT YOU KNOW NOTHING OF! You poor childish college students stuck in your world believing that everything comes to you in a nice bow need to wake up. Whether you support this war or not, or any war whatsoever you need to understand and have respect for the people that are there. The greatest tragedy is not what the soldier does on the whim of his country, but instead what the country does on a whim to the soldier who severs it. If you do not believe in this war DO NOT blame the soldiers, instead blame the congressmen and women that have them over there. The sad truth is we send these soldiers into a world that others would describe as hell and expect them to behave just as we do! How could we even hope to believe that, these soldiers must adapt in a way that works for them, and the sad truth is to some extent one has to become comfortable with death otherwise they will go insane. So what it really comes down to is this, if you don't like the pictures don't look at them, don't spread them around, its that simple.

Update to the comments

I am glad to see that these images have affected so many and sparked dialog for so long. This war is illegal, immoral, and unjustified, which entails that every person in these photos dies unnecessarily. There is one 'pro-war' comment that keeps re-appearing and I want to address it. "War has always happened, it has always been ugly, and it always will, so get over it". It is true that tyrants have always waged wars, and that tyrants have always done really bad things, and I am sure that there will always be tyrants that want to do it in the future (though I do hope one day they will all be stopped before they can). But I fail to see the point.
Lets put this another way. There has always been Pedophiles, these Pedophiles have always sexually assaulted small children, and it has always been cruel. It also will happen in the future, for as long as man kind lives on. From this fact, should we accept it, support it, do it? Of course we should fight it, we should lock up these Pedophiles to protect children.
So back to your point, yes, tyrants have always waged war, and they have always murdered civilians for profit and power. But this does not mean we should join the orgy of immorality. We should identify it, fight it, and remove from power every tyrant of today and tomorrow. And George W. Bush is a tyrant that stands with Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, Caesar, and many others. And, we are the people that can assert our human right. There are certain truths that are simply self-evident. All men (not just American men) are created equal, and they are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. To secure these rights, Governments are instituted among the people, deriving their just powers from the consent of those governed, That whenever any Form of Government (forigen occupier or domestic institution) becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

I would love to censor these pics too, but unfortunately, if we ignore it, it will continue. If you can get Americans to stop doing the actions, I promise to stop showing it. Maybe if you over there in Africa spent some time showing the horrors going on in North Uganda, there would be enough global opposition to the genocide of the LRA to stop it.
 
Maybe if you took more photos in your own country (like where Shell has murdered your own people for oil) unethical acts of aggressions would stop there as well.
It is hard to believe that someone from Africa can say to us that we should try to censor genocide. Maybe you are so used to it in your own backyard that you don't even care. We do, and we will stop this. We will work to stop in the Middle East and Africa. We are all brothers and sisters stuck on this place called earth, and it is time we are realists about what is going on, and demand that it all stops!

Just rambling here...
To be honest, everyone has the right to an opinion...like they say, "opinions are like assholes, everyone has one".
If you think that our military's reasoning for being there is wrong, write a letter to the president. It will be read and shredded, if it even makes it THAT far.
Don't hate our troops for what they are told to do. Hate YOUR president that YOU elected. I personally voted for Kerry...but that's beside the point.
Murdering people is NOT okay HERE in the usa, nor should it be okay ANYWHERE in the world. If someone is running at you with a gun aimed right at your head, what do you do? If it's YOU or HIM...wouldn't you much rather it be you who lives through it? Or would you drop your gun, raise your arms in the air and say "I can't shoot you, It's wrong."?
Doubtful.
Just because there aren't pictures of the people killed in WW1 and WW2...hell, ANY war, doesn't mean that the same shit didn't happen to those parties involved.
We have had americans beheaded on TV! Those fools broadcast the live beheading of innocent americans....yet we, as americans, are the ones who are brutal and inhumane?
Just give it a rest. What you see here is nothing new. It happened before, and it will happen again as problems arise between two different nations.
It is what it is, and nothing that anyone says on some website is going to change it.
So you can sit there, at your computer, and let your little fingers type away to form some useless rant on the screen; or, you can crack open a budweiser, plop your ass on the couch and flip to TV to ESPN, all the while thinking "Damn it's great to be an American!". Your choice.

Ma'am, your loved ones would not be in the military if they did'nt want to be right? what about your sister or your daughter? they could join up too, along with you if you wanted too. I was in the Army for about three months at Ft. Benning, they tried to brainwash us into killing people. They could give a good goddamn about us. there are soldiers that come home, get dropped off in d.c. and thats it, they gotta find their own way back. But hey, if they were rich they would no doubt have an easier time. And you know, we did'nt even have to go to war, but because we want that saudi oil...think about it lady our government gives less than a shit about us in the face of profit, if the world blew up they would just live in their own artificial environment with all the rich fuckers and all their material crap and maybe a few regular folks around as slaves. By the way, when i joined the army infantry my reqruiter told me to lie about having athsma and when they found out at benning they told me i had to go home, i did'nt want to live a lie. Any way, Peace Forever! and those who want to destroy, hurt or otherwise cause negativity should all live together on their own island so they can only bother each other.

There are such sick people out there and their actions speak very clearly, I am sorry lady, but you have no right to defend these sorts of actions. People like you make it OK for this to happen, and under no curcumstances is this behavour OK! I am sorry to hear about your family going to WAR but the rest of us have to cope with the out come of their actions. WAR is a gresome time but us at home should be greatful for the loved ones that return.
BTW if you think that only America went to WAR you are sadly mistaken, I am a New Zealander and many of our people didn't have a choice, and were sent to Peace Keep what your Brothers and Husband and fellow citizens left behind. There was such a mess. Our men and woman were discusted at the ill treatment of people, such little respect for life and no compassion for those that were killed. Most of the people America fought against, were people like you and me, but with less knowledge of what was really happening. Most of them were only children, inocences caught up in POLITICAL bullshit and poorly educated.
I am proud to be able to look out my window each day with no guilt on my shoulders. Weither it is war or not, nobody deserves to suffer in such an inhumain and horrid way.

These pictures are the reality of what a fucked up thing war is. It is not a fun or exciting game, wehre you run around shooting people. Death is graphic, painful, and disturbing. These pictures should be shown to all the people who have a happy, hollywood view on war. But, in defense of the amreican army: dont discriminat against the thousands of soldiers who are in the middl east, exposed to this daily. Dont judge a scared group of people on those who desicrate the dead. Be supportive, i say again, the men of americas armed forces are exposed to this daily, the last thing they need is people rallying for their defeat. Dont support the war, support the troops. God, do not bless America, bless the frightened men and women who live with the threat of death looming over their heads, whos lives are forever changed by the atrocities of war. Hollywood got on thing right, "The first causualty of war is innocence..."

ok first of all if ound this page on a nother page when i was looking for support your troops stufff. it said the truth about our troops,so i clicked on it. im writing on here bc the person who made the last website was too coward to put up his own email. well, to all of you who think you know about whats going on over there and our troops, you dont. you have no idea. yes they volunteered for the army and yes they knew they would probably get sent overseas. but let me tell you something. screw the genevia convention;all those people who are ignorant enough to not support the troops thats the rules of war we only are required to follow. do you people not remember september 11. we are in iraq trying to fix their government so this doesnt happen again. those of you who can sit there and say your against the troops im sure was not affected by sept 11. you did not have someone in one of those planes or in those buildings or fm/po who died bc they were trying to save others. it says our troops are not heros. fuck that!!! a hero is someone who risks their life to save another. our troops are heros, they risk their life to save all of ours. those of you who say you dont support our troops, go ahead stand in front of them and take that bullet for them bc they surely are taking it for you. whats that? yeah ur too cowardly. yea the pictures are graphic and it does say they are civilian. you say its horrible what we do to the captured that they should be treated with respect. do our troops get treated with respect? hell no! ask a wife of a soldier who has been captured how "respected" her soldier was treated. she'll hand you the video of her husband being tortured and then having his head cut off by a rusty saw. imagine that. so all of u who dont support our troops, fuck off and y dont you go ahead and stand infront of them. take the bullet for them for a change. i dare you!!!!

The images are just the images of the vehicle a person used to live in (a broken physical body). Once the person has gone out of that body, it is no longer them. The people who lived in them, lived a shorter life due to someone stealing their potential. The reasons are many to take a life, but it is still theft. Theft of potential. It is the potential to do harm or to do good. We all have the potential to do harm or to do good. If there is anyway to stop the reasons to steal a life, then all effort should be made to help both sides.

First off, what you presented was a non-sequitur argument. Joining the army has nothing to do with understanding the realities of life.
If i'm wrong about that than you presented a pretty stupid argument to join the military, because the pictures above represent the atrocities of pointless "wars" (since congress has not technically declared a war since ww2) and pointless deaths.
But I should be more specific. It IS NOT pointless if you are a CEO of cingular wireless or halliburton, if you are the growing gdp/ gnp, or if you are among the dwindling number of rich folk in the US, etc.
It IS pointless if you are poor and being lied to in order to join the military, bc your government can not provide affordable education or enough jobs (yes, recruiters lie, and for good reason: it's their job and we desperately need more ppl in the military); if you are sick in the US and can't get affordable healthcare because we can't divert some of the 4 billion dollars a week going to kill more American troops, contractors, and iraqis to the healthcare system, etc.
If you can not wrap your mind around the fact that the recent warmongering of the US is for geo-political and economic reasons, which only benefit the rich (a shrinking number of ppl), and not for the ambiguous notions presented to a nauseating amount (freedom, democracy, terrorism, etc.) than you are a tool--plain and simple
