We have been through the whole forceful interrogation arguments before so i'll skip that.

I think the Iraqis will realise that what the Brits and the US got caught for is nothing, nothing compared to what Saddam used to do to them. Or what Syria/Egypt still does. If only people really knew what Saddam got upto. People tend to avoid it, more often than not to justify their objection to war.

The protests to these photos would be more principled than anything else. The Iraqis (hopefully) should see the bigger picture.
