Former President Jimmy Carter, speaking to CNN on Monday, said he disagrees with President Barack Obama’s decision to withhold photos of prisoner abuse. He added that Obama appears to be resolved against resurrecting the past by punishing those in the Bush administration guilty of what of what Carter himself considers “crimes against our Constitution”

Carter, spoken like the complete appeasement wimp asshole he was that caused and exacerbated the Iranian American Embassy hostage crisis. Apparently, he hasn't learned anything yet from his own lessons in failed foreign appeasement policy.

if there was no wrong doing then why is there a problem in releasing the photos?

i no longer really respect Obama since he made that decision this past week or so
we should demand that he restore our honor and integrity as a nation by showing us the worst of those pictures and punishing all war criminals involved -- all of them
and pulling our troops out of iraq and afghanistan, sealing the mexican/canadian borders, and putting over half the war funds back into reforming the economy and prosecuting corporate and political criminals

Carter did give the NKoreans their NUKE reactor...
very bad move...

Oh, Jimmy. Still thinking you're important and that your failed foreign policy tactics still work. Tsk, tsk, tsk. And trying to get a "valid" point across by appealing to the Communist News Network audience. Just...so...sad.

oh SpookGA, with your selective/fantasy version of US history, forgetting, for example, Carter's Camp David Accords which caused peace between Israel and Egypt

oh SpookGA, forgetting all the environmental initiatives he put forward protecting our environment. and forgetting the fact that he didn't start war against Iran during the hostage crisis -- which would have cost the lives of all the hostages and countless Iranian and American soldiers
oh advocate of Iranian regime style torture being used on prisoners of the American military...

Lasrever, the other day I was trolling for the lulz a site called JihadWatch.org, you may be already aware of its existance. Anyway they claimed that the recent airstrikes which resulted in a wide spread "collateral damage" in Afghanistan has been confirmed via video evidence from US bombers that the Taliban must have intercepted the fire code and were seen to be herding nearby women and children noncombatants into buildings nearby - JihadWatch's article asserts that this was obviously in order to maximise the death toll,for propoganda use. However this damning evidence is nowhere to be found. You seem pretty switched on regarding damage limitation stratagies, do you know if that footage exists at all.
