Maybe you forget why these photos are still relevant. We Americans have endorsed and encouraged torture. Those who most advocate and encourage this - ie Cheney, Rumsfeld, Gonzales - are still in power, maintain that such practices are good for America, and, well, you do know about force feeding tortured prisoners in Guantanamo.
What we also know about Abu Ghriad is that most all prisoners were innocent. The great majority were released after three weeks - given something like $10 for their time and to be used to get home. You tell me who the great Satan is in this story?
Did we eliminate the problem? No. Most of us so hate what American stands for as to vote for the mental midget and his band of 'torture is good' promoters.
Want to stop such pictures? Impeachment is the word. Impeachment for crimes against humanity. Oh. Religious extremist don't believe this is a crime - as they also did during the Spanish Inquisition.
Keep those pictures dribbling. They will remind us that we are party to a great 'immoral' action - and don't speak out.
Most all those who were tortured - many of whom were also killed (ie that Iraqi General) were innocent. But since our emotions said they must be evil, then their death was a good thing? Ask yourself where this is called moral. Keep those pictures coming so that the guilty may eventually appreciate who evil ones really are. Shame that those pictures are so necessary. Absolute shame.
