I recognize there is something called the Geneva Convention, which we have to abide by. Which is why I asked a question in an earlier post :

Kumar,
Somehow I missed the earlier post.
I agree with you Saddam is not protected under the Geneva protocols.
He is, however, being treated as if he were.

I don't recall anything I ever learned about the rules of war prohibiting casual photos of prisoners or anything else. If such are prohibited, I am guilty. But I'm sure they are not. Every "A" Team carries a nifty camera pack and uses it often.

Saddam Hussein is a master criminal and murderer of the worst kind.
The real crime here is allowing the NYT to label the photograph of him in shorts as prisoner abuse...if only by inference.

The real shame here is that some Americans are buying this crock of NYT BS.
