Liberties? WHOSE liberties?

"American" Civil Liberties Union -- wonder if their bylaws have the word "American" in them.  Someone please tell them that this social studies teacher would love to refresh their memories with a high school civics class...

 NEW YORK The chairman of the joint chiefs of staff warns that releasing photos and videotapes of detainee abuse at Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison could have serious consequences.
 
 General Richard Myers contends in recently unsealed court documents that the release of such information would aid al-Qaida recruitment, weaken governments in Iraq and Afghanistan and incite riots against U-S troops.
 
 The American Civil Liberties Union wants 87 photographs and four videotapes taken at the prison released as part of a lawsuit it filed in 2003.
 
 The group is seeking information on the treatment of detainees in U-S custody and about the transfer of prisoners to countries known to use torture.
