Iraq sex orgies photos shock Congressmen
THE Bush administration agonised last night over whether to release
hundreds of unpublished images from Iraqi prisons that left
congressmen expressing revulsion after seeing them in a secret
session.
Pentagon officials who showed the 1,800 graphic photographs and video
clips feel it is inevitable that they will leak out.
They showed forced sexual acts among prisoners and orgies among the
guards, with most of the graphically recorded abuse and misbehaviour
apparently taking place at the notorious Abu Ghraib prison.
Sen Bill Frist, the Republican majority leader of the House of
Representatives, said: "What we saw is appalling."
Senators said one of the female soldiers at the centre of the Iraqi
prisoner-abuse scandal was photographed having sex with other military
guards, sometimes in front of detainees.
Private First Class Lynndie England has already become the face of the
scandal, shown in pictures pointing at a naked Iraqi and holding
another by a leash.
She has claimed she was following orders from senior personnel and the
photos were used to terrify other inmates into talking.
But unpublished photographs show Pte England engaged in sex acts with
other soldiers, some senators said.
"She was having sex with numerous partners. It appeared to be
consensual," said one senator. "Almost everybody was naked all the
time," another said.
Other senators branded the images of abuse at Abu Ghraib prison, near
Baghdad, as "disgusting".
Oregon Senator Ron Wyden said: "I expected that these pictures would
be very hard on the stomach lining and it was significantly worse than
anything that I had anticipated.
"Take the worse case and multiply it several times over," he added.
Some snaps showed Iraqi women commanded to expose their breasts.
"I don't know how the hell these people got into our army," said
Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell. "There were several pictures of Iraqi
women who were disrobed or putting their shirts up. They were not
smiling in the pictures, that's for sure. But it didn't look like they
had been beaten or hurt."
"It was pretty disgusting, not what you'd expect from Americans," said
Senator Norm Coleman. "There was lots of sexual stuff - not of the
Iraqis, but of our troops."
Among the more shocking scenes was footage of a man banging his head
against a door until he collapsed. He appeared to have a rope around
his waist pulling him towards the door.
"This was a cellblock gone wild," added outraged Sen Joe Lieberman.
The CIA was on the spot over a report into interrogation of al-Qa'ida
detainees. This is believed to include accounts of "water boarding"
treatment, when a prisoner's head is pushed under water and held until
he believes he will drown. (© Daily Telegraph, London)

I think he spilt his poutine all over his keyboard and it hit a random
sequence of keys, including 'Post Message To Newsgroup'.
