You, or someone else, posted earlier that Taguba's career is over because he was too honest. Military organizations always "shoot the messenger." Goes back to the start of civilization.

From what I've seen, the abuse happened late Oct to early Nov 03 (2-3 weeks), and hapened between 2-4 AM. Wonder what specifically happened at that time that caused these twirps to go over the deep end.... Also see that there are 3 women of the 7 so far involved....wonder about that as well. One of the women is evidently 4-5 months pregnant by one of the 7 mentioned.... who are these people, and what is their story...? - the abusers must have been provoked; - the victims are lucky to be alive rather than killed in battle; - the victims and the rest of the Iraqi people are lucky Iraq hasn't been turned into a sheet of glass; - what happened to the victims is payback for Fallujah; - what happened to the victims is payback for 9/11; - what happened to the victims is nothing more serious than a frat prank, and the photos are similar to Mapplethorpe so we should let the NEA display them.
