Dead Murderers 

The national security archive has obtained more photos of US soldiers in caskets.







A gallery with the rest of the photos can be found here (requires Flash).

The Bush administration hates to release information that might make it look bad, so it took a lawsuit to force them to release these photos. Dead Iraqis are obviously much more important and a much greater tragedy but this is still newsworthy since most Americans are bigots who value American lives more than non-American lives and these kind of photos can decrease support for the war/occupation (which is why the Bush administration tried to keep it secret). Plus, these soldiers can be considered a kind of 'secondary victim' of imperialism due to the poverty draft, albeit victims very complicit in imperialism and thus their own demise.
