p> UP FOR GHRAIB br> Re: George Neumayr's Avant-Ghraib : /p> p>Ironic, isn't it, that the humiliation of a group of Muslim terrorists is a ghastly sin against mankind, but the dismemberment and skull crushing of seven and eight month developed fetuses is not only accepted, but also preferred by the pro-abortion crowd. We should all take a good look at our children and grand children. After all, their pain is "irrelevant" too. This may very well be the saddest thing I have read in my entire life. We are truly a country gone mad in a world spinning out of control. How can we survive on that only thing left in the Pandora's box of the '60s and the '70s -- Hope. It is becoming very difficult to sustain. br> -- Joseph Baum br> Newton Falls, Ohio /p>

Despite Mr. Neumayr's strained efforts to deflect attention from the degradations of fellow human beings at Abu Ghraib, we will not forget this unspeakable national shame. And no, Mr. Neumayr, I am not a frothing-at-the-mouth leftwing fanatic, I am a Rightist Catholic.

What has been going on in those prisons -- and, indeed what has been going on in Iraq since day one -- is a crime the stench of which will fill the nostrils of the rest of the world (and the noses of sensible Americans) for decades, if not centuries, to come.

p>Give it up, Mr. Neumayr. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. br> --
