This will only be a rallying cry for our enemies.

Mutliple Military Leaders, News Sources, Etc have said that they do exist. Obama said he would release that photos, but changed his mind.

For those that do not trust an Iranian news source, here is one from the UK.

Abu Ghraib abuse photos 'show rape'

I'd take that with a grain of salt. These photos could be frauds. I've seen this ruse come up before.

Not that I be suprised the photos exist.

That is just garbage to instill hate against America. Posting it only helps spread the hate.

There are "some" bad apples in the military as in anyplace else, but they are far and few between and when caught they are punished.

Trying to paint all of them with the same brush is a great disservice to all American Soldiers, it was done by the left during Vietnam War by calling all soldiers "Baby Killers" by idiotic Americans that believed the rants and were clueless, this isn't much different.

It is still just garbage on the Internet... that stinks!

Who's trying to paint all of them??? And that "baby killer" meme is an urban legend. It was extremely rare for that kind of talk to be directed at Vietnam veterans.

The left news media ran the Abu Grab prison torture story dozens of times, for what was "Embarrassing" the prisoners, not torture. Cutting fingers or other body parts off, burning out eyes, pouring acid in the mouth, raping a daughter, wife or girlfriend then killing them in front of the family members is torture... those things are real torture and we are not doing them...

Well my being in uniform during the early 70's, I can attest that it was not an urban Legend. As for my friends, they experienced it too... as well as being spit on, flipped the bird after honking their horns to get you to look at them driving by and the list went on and on. The worst was passing though Southern California, it was a bit less in other parts of the Nation, but still there.

I would assume that you are young enough to believe the stuff that the left is telling you, which is mostly garbage.

I don't believe you. There are not any press reports of this rhetoric being directed at veterans nor it's sister myth that soldiers were "spat" on. I have several family members that served in Vietnam and they chuckled when I asked them this....It's just a myth used to smear liberals and anti war supporters.

The common one is that the "hippies" met them at the airport....LOL....That's pure bunk as most every veteran arrived back at a military airfield for processing and the hippies were nowhere near there....LOL

I'd be interested in specifics.
Or something so I know what stuff to look out for, the stuff which is mostly garbage.

And is it the entire left?
Far left?
Leaners?
The talking heads?

There is no reason not to share your info.
Who can be trusted?

If you intend to throw out a blanket that says the right can be trusted - but don't listen to the left! - then no need to reply.
