((Pictures)) of American soldiers killing a handcuffed Iraqi

Bullshit.

3 photos in 3 locales
4 unidentifiable persons who may not be the same individuals, and no evidence of any violence being committed by anyone.

Rock solid proof of a crime being committed, Andy! Haul 'em off to the hoosgow!

I suppose this 'proof' justifies the recent beheadings of Americans.

How come the guy in the second photo is wearing different shoes?

Bad 'proof', very bad. What do you want to achieve with this hodhod?

So you all are saying the last picture is a fake? That there is not really three guys looking at a dead guy and one guy laughing?

As for the rest, you guys are right; there is not really a way to tell if all the pictures are part of the same event.

Now that there are beheadings, which are terrible, does that mean the US and the coalition has free reign to do what it's wants to because no matter what they do it won't be as bad as a beheading?

Is that two "hods," hodhod? You know, in German, that would make you a pair of "Hoden."

Of course not revel, and I don't think you will find any here who think that way (maybe some ultra conservatives; where are swolf and McGentrix when you need them :wink: ... Just kidding of course)

I don't even think McGentrix would use pictures like this as proof of anything. I do believe he has better things to do with his time. swolf I'm not so sure about.

Not only are these photos from three different locations, the sun is in two different position. In the first photo the sun light is coming from the right. In the second photo it is coming from the left. This suggests that they may have been taken at different times of the day.

I don't know, Hod. Certainly looks like the same guy, but you'll need something better than this to make that kind of point. I don't even think those are the same 3 soldiers.

Also these pictures are copywrited, I'm not certain if they can be legally posted here

Heh, they link to an arabic music/porn site...

Who is this hodhod guy / girl?

Wow! You guys are goooood!!!
Although, even if from separate incidents, those last two pictures are rather disturbing to me.

That soldier isn't smiling because of the dead guy, he's trying to catch the eye of that other handsome soldier, the one without the helmet.

Maybe they are part of The Pink Division.

He's asleep, and dreaming about his gal back home.

It you look closely at the three photographs posted by hodhod they are copywrited by Magnum Photos.

This is how they describe themselves
http://www.magnumphotos.com/c/Home_MAG.aspx?Stat=Menu_Home

"Magnum Photos is a photographic co-operative of great diversity and distinction owned by its photographer-members. With powerful individual vision, Magnum photographers chronicle the world and interpret its peoples, events, issues and personalities. Through its four editorial offices in New York, London, Paris and Tokyo, and a network of fifteen sub-agents, Magnum Photos provides photographs to the press, publishers, advertising, television, galleries and museums across the world".

Magnum maintains a library of photographs that are for sale to licensed purchasers

"library is a living archive updated daily with new work from across the globe."

"There are approximately one million photographs in both print and transparency in the physical library with 250,000 images available online".

". There are constantly updated profiles on most countries of the world, covering industry, society and people, places of interest, politics and news events, disasters and conflict. "


It seems that hodhod has legally or otherwise obtained access to photographs in the Magnum archive and posted three of them with out attribution or context onA2K. As Magnum sells images not news stories, it is unlikely that these three pictures are connected in any way other than by place and subject matter, and the place is conjectural.
