Pres. Obama - You MUST Demand a Full Investigation Into War Crimes
President Barack Obama, with all due respect, you simply MUST demand that war crimes be investigated in Iraq and Afghanistan IMMEDIATELY!
Those who are found guilty should be seen LIVE on television during their trials, just as LIVE as say OJ Simpson's trial was or former President Bill Clinton's trial was, for all the WORLD TO SEE.
They MUST know that we Americans do NOT tolerate the torturing of prisoners, no IF's, THEN's or BUT's about it --- we do not authorize TORTURE, no matter HOW ugly the enemy gets, we are a nation of laws and moral values.
Please Mr President, by ignoring these crimes, you are ALSO committing a crime by covering them up.
You denied the release of those photos because you feared for the LIVES of our soldiers sir. Well sir, this information is spreading like wild fire -- you are ENDANGERING our soldiers lives by IGNORING the War Crimes.
How would you feel if one or both of your daughters or wife was tortured in the manner that is being reported (brutally raped with different devices, let alone by a man)?
Stand up sir! Stand up for our soldiers, other Americans and your family values.

Coonsey is absolutely right. Rape (or even consential sex with a prisoner) is a crime even extreme Cheneyism wouldn't sanction. Not to prosecute each and every such case is the most damaging course of action for this country and this administration.
