Subject: RE: BS: Saddam's response: Briefs!
I actually felt sympathy for Saddam when I saw the photos. He just looked like a regular guy getting dressed. Sort of a harmless old coot that might have been a member of the family.

I understand that it is an invasion of privacy but you don't really think the Geneva convention applies to the war in Iraq, do you?

I'm not sure if there was any motive for publishing those photos other than monetary gain by someone. I don't think the photos were especially funny. Its another, "so what", as far as I'm concerned. It just goes to show what this war is all about.

Its a dirty little war for profit. There is no moral high ground or American integrity. Its disgusting what people will do to make a buck.
