Here is a link and comment about the Saddam torture tapes.
I will not watch them. My point in putting it here is to
bring up the fact that almost none of the media is talking
about them. - From: LindyBill

Latest Abu Ghraib Torture Video Released

Not just Abu Graib, but other Iraqi prisons too. And these are far, far worse than anything else seen before.

VERY GRAPHIC - NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN

I recommend you have a barf-bag near the keyboard, and unless you are a medical professional, I’m not joking.

This video was released on June 8th, by the American Enterprise Institute. Present were some of the actual victims, who were able to personally confirm the events and background.

From the Nation Review Online :
<font size=5>
Two weeks ago, a bipartisan group of U.S. senators held a
press conference at which they played a video of ritual
prisoner torture by Saddam Hussein’s regime. As of this
writing, the only mainstream media outlet that has
mentioned it is the New York Post, in an opinion column by
Deborah Orin. None of the 24-hour news networks, not
America’s paper of record, etc., has deemed it newsworthy
to reveal the details (or existence) of this video, much
less elected to show clips or stills.

There is also a detailed description of what is on the tapes, should you want more information before deciding whether or not to view them.
