They say they got the pictures "from US military sources", as I understand.

Now, if so, that's VERY enlightening! Could be a guard, or any of the guard's superiors, all the way up through the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff! Or, I suppose, even the Shrub, since he's the commander in chief.

And of course the motivations of individuals at all those different levels could be different. The guard, for instance, could have been motivated by hate of Saddam; or hate of the Army; or by bribery; or who knows what other factor? The top levels' motivation, if they turned the pictures over, is probably going to be political.
