A corpse is a corpse, of course, of course...

After our government accused Iraq of "violating the Geneva convention" for showing corpses of US soldiers, ABC just showed corpses of Iraqi soldiers.

I don't see the difference.

In a word, baloney. If the POWs are not completely free to refuse media interviews, including specific questions -- remember they are _prisoners_ and are NOT free in other ways -- they are being exploited for propaganda value.

This is media war, and we're losing.

It is a fundamental tenet of PsyOP that you _MUST_ retain your reputation for telling the truth, or all is in tatters. And we are clearly, provably NOT telling the truth . . . this really sucks.
