Here's the thing: The world already knows what was done in the name of the United States Of America. I imagine that the logic is that releasing more photos will not only cause more anger, it will serve as a recruiting tool for radical groups already bent on attacking the USA. Want to blunt that tool? Show the world that those who tortured will be treated like the criminals that they are. Frankly, it shouldn't matter anyway what anyone else thinks, torture is a crime. Our jails are full of people who committed far less serious offenses. Our behavior doesn't need to be based on its potential P.R. impact, if we follow and enforce the law and our conscience as a nation, our standing in the world will be improved.
