re: Doubts over UK 'abuse' pictures
What I have read on this so far (the British incident specifically) gives me insufficient information to judge the truth of this. There are certainly a lot of flaws in the pictures, but then one would also have to explain the motivation of military men (two soldiers from the Queen's Lancashire Regiment) palming these off on somebody.
I'm waiting to see more on all of this. The media does tend to jump rapidly to conclusions if they agree with those conclusions.
