Until our precious troops come home, we can't do anything that might endanger them. (Man: I would sooner kill the reincarnated infant Jesus than allow one of our sainted storm troopers to suffer the tiniest boo-boo.) Our troops are as beloved by Iraqis and Afghans as their native sons. It sounds gay, but that's why they're still there. They love it! (Man 2: It's my turn to scratch the occupiers head!) (Woman: Bloody fingernails are fun to groom!) Releasing photos that show our troops torturing Iraqis and Afghans would trigger the release of long-suppressed memories. Just like that, the honeymoon would be over! (Man 2: Raping my son was one thing- photographing is quite another.) Stay the course: torture them make them forget. Wallow in the love. (Man 3: A new car?!? Now I can ride in style to the torture prison!)
