The Prisoner Abuse Photos Big Media Doesn't Want You To See

No, I'm not talking about the Abu Ghraib photos.

I am talking about the widespread abuse, torture, and murder of people at the hands of the Islamic terrorist groups including al Qaeda in Iraq. Dr. Rusty Shackleford correctly observes:
There is real abuse still happening in Iraq, though. The mainstream media does not want you to know about this abuse. They have refused to report on it. Even though the images are available to them, they refuse to show them.

These images are quite damning. They clearly show that prisoners in Iraq continue to be abused. More than abused, these images show prisoners in Iraq being murdered by the troops involved. Yet, nothing from the mainstream media.
Where is the outrage from the Left? Where's Amnesty International or Human Rights Watch? Where is the demand for UN investigations? Where is the demand for the terrorists to cease and desist killing civilian contractors who are trying to rebuild and restore Iraq's infrastructure?

No, all we get is silence. While the terrorists continue padding the butcher's bill.

Some of the prisoners are still being held, and it is feared that they may be tortured and killed before long - and before they could be rescued by coalition forces.

It is unconscionable that these images do not get a fraction of the media attention that the Abu Ghraib photos get. These are newsworthy - and serve to remind the reader just who we're fighting, what we're fighting for, and why we must fight this fight.

Others trying to make sure that these images get wider exposure: LGF (hat tip), Outside the Beltway, Six Meat Buffet, Junk Yard Blog, and Hyscience.
