Hypocrisy and Underwear

A British and an American newspaper published a full-page photograph of Saddam Hussein in his underwear and other pictures of him in his jail cell, sparking a US military inquiry and allegations from human rights advocates that the humiliating photos violate Geneva Conventions guidelines on the treatment of prisoners of war.

Trent Duffy, the White House spokesman, said Bush ''strongly supports the aggressive and thorough investigation that is already underway" by the military.

But where was the outrage when he was captured and the US Military released pictures just as humiliating?
