Reuters<\/a> reports that Manhattan Federal Judge Alvin Hellerstein ordered the government to release even more photos of what a few soldiers did in Abu Ghraib more than ten years ago because the American Civil Liberties Union says that it will “help the public better understand the implications of some of the Bush administration’s policies.” Whatever that means;<\/p>\n

Hellerstein ruled last August that the government had failed to show why releasing the photographs would endanger American soldiers and workers abroad, but gave the government a chance to submit more evidence. In Friday’s order, however, he said additional evidence had failed to change his decision.<\/p>\n

The photographs would be released in redacted form to conceal the identities of any individuals, according to court documents.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, basically, the judge has decided that he’d give ISIS more recruiting tools, make more US troops targets because a small group of part-time soldiers wanted to entertain themselves and film it for the world to see. There was nothing from the Defense Department or the White House that encouraged this behavior. In fact, some the guilty parties had already been charged by the time the media got word of the antics of a few out-of-control Reservists. <\/p>\n

But that’s cool, now those guys still deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq can pay for the mistakes of Lynndie England and Charles Graner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
