Among the most infamous images of prisoner torture by American forces in Iraq, the hooded man attached to electrical wires has been told if he steps off the box he will be electrocuted. The caption asks, "got freedom?"
There are two separate questions being asked here. At what (and whose) price is our freedom supposedly 'defended' in our name? Second, is this the kind of liberty the Bush administration intended when it defined the invasion as "Operation Iraqi Freedom?"
