*Ø* Blogmanac | Soldier snapped grinning over Iraqi corpse

"A female American soldier is seen grinning and giving a thumbs-up over the corpse of an Iraqi detainee in the latest shocking photograph to emerge from the prisoner abuse scandal.

"Specialist Sabrina Harman was pictured with the body of an Iraqi, who other soldiers have told investigators died during interrogation at Abu Ghraib prison near Baghdad.

"The photograph was obtained by ABC News, which identified the dead Iraqi as Manadel al-Jamadi ..."

Warning, the photo is very disturbing.

The dead man's name was Manadel al-Jamadi. Quick quiz question to ask around the office: What is the name of any of the men in the Abu Ghraib torture and humiliation photos? I bet not one person in ten will know. This, I believe, is because the 'enemy' has been characterized as sub-human. Sad to say, those responsible will probably make a fortune by telling their story to Hollywood and the media. Meanwhile, we let wars happen and put guns in the hands of mean, stupid people.
