The Iraqi prisoner abuse issue has to put it in Donald Rumsfeld's words gone "radioactive". Its all over the media ..
Several very interesting issues here ..

Firstly people everywhere are saying though Rumsfeld was not directly responsible for this , he should take the responsbility as the Secretary of Defense , basically take the fall and resign. This will send a powerful and required message to the average person on the Arab street that the US is really serious and does infact regard this as a big enough issue ...
Second how will this affect the politics of american election ?
Third and most importanly , this does not help the already severly damaged image that the arabs have of the americans..

bad bad bad ....
