i respectfully disagree mr president

i think releasing the photographs and condemning those that committed the atrocities and those that ordered the atrocities will SAVE lives. it will show the world, we as americans will NOT tolerate torture. we as americans DO NOT torture. we as americans will PUNISH THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR TORTURE (and i'm NOT talking the grunts that may have done the physical abuse. i'm talking the big boyz and of course coonnddii as well. make them pay for the disregard they have for america and all she is and all she stands for. make them pay for torture. AMERICA DOES NOT TORTURE)

Obama Shifts on Abuse Photos
Releasing Images of Detainee Mistreatment Would Endanger U.S. Troops, President Says

By Scott Wilson

Washington Post Staff Writer
A month after making public once-classified Justice Department memos detailing the Bush administration's coercive methods of interrogation, President Obama yesterday chose secrecy over disclosure, saying he will seek to block the court-ordered release of photographs depicting the abuse of detainees held by U.S. authorities abroad.
Obama agreed less than three weeks ago not to oppose the photos' release, but he changed his mind after viewing some of the images and hearing warnings from his generals in Iraq and in Afghanistan that such a move would endanger U.S. troops deployed there. .......
