Iraqi Corpses Showing Up on Porn Site

WWW- If you want to see the true face of war, go to the amateur porn Web site www.NowThatsFuckedUp.com. For almost a year, American soldiers stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan have been taking photographs of dead bodies, many of them horribly mutilated or blown to pieces, and sending them to Web site administrator Chris Wilson. In return for letting him post these images, Wilson gives the soldiers free access to his site. American soldiers have been using the pictures of disfigured Iraqi corpses as currency to buy pornography.

At Wilson’s Web site, you can see an Arab man’s face sliced off and placed in a bowl filled with blood. Another man’s head, his face crusted with dried blood and powder burns, lies on a bed of gravel. A man in a leather coat, who apparently tried to run a military checkpoint, lies slumped in the driver’s seat of a car, his head obliterated by gunfire, the flaps of skin from his neck blooming open like rose petals. Six men in beige fatigues, identified as U.S. Marines, laugh and smile for the camera while pointing at a burned, charcoal-black corpse lying at their feet.

The captions that accompany these images, which were apparently written by the soldiers who posted them, laugh and gloat over the bodies. The soldier who posted a picture of a corpse lying in a pool of his own brains and entrails wrote, “What every Iraqi should look like.” The photograph of a corpse whose jaw has apparently rotted away, leaving a gaping set of upper teeth, bears the caption: “bad day for this dude.” One soldier posted three photographs of corpses lying in the street and titled his collection, “die haji die.” The soldiers take pride, even joy, in displaying the dead.

This is a moral catastrophe. The Bush administration claims such sympathy for American war dead that officials have banned the media from photographing flap-draped coffins being carried off of cargo planes. Government officials and American media officials have repeatedly denounced the Al-Jazeera network for airing grisly footage of Iraqi war casualties and American prisoners of war. The legal fight over whether to release the remaining photographs of atrocities at Abu Ghraib has dragged on for months, with no less a figure than Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Richard Meyers arguing that the release of such images will inflame the Muslim world and drive untold numbers to join Al Qaeda. But none of these can compare to the prospect of American troops casually bartering pictures of suffering and death for porn.

“Two years ago, if somebody had said our soldiers would do these things to detainees and take pictures of it, I would have said that’s a lie,” sighed the recently retired General Michael Marchand – who as Assistant Judge Advocate General for the Army was responsible for reforming military training policy to make sure nothing like Abu Ghraib ever happens again. “What soldiers do, I’m not sure I can guess anymore.”

But for Chris Wilson, it’s all in a day’s work. “It’s an unedited look at the war from their point of view,” he says of the soldiers who contribute the images. “There’s always going to be a slant from the news media …. And this is a photo that comes straight from their camera to the site. To me, it’s just a more real look at what’s going on.”

Wilson, a 27-year-old Web entrepreneur living in Florida, created the Web site a year ago, asked fans to contribute pictures of their wives and girlfriends, and posted footage and photographs bearing titles such as “wife working cock” and “ass fucking my wife on the stairs.” The site was a big hit with soldiers stationed overseas; about a third of his customers, or more than 50,000 people, work in the military. Wilson says he started getting e-mail from soldiers thanking him for keeping up their morale and “bringing a little piece of the States to them.” But other soldiers complained that they had problems buying memberships to his service. “They wanted to join the site, the amateur wife and girlfriend site,” he says. “But they couldn’t, because the addresses associated with their credit cards were Quackistan or something, they were in such a high-risk country, that the credit card companies wouldn’t approve the purchase.”

That’s when Wilson hit upon the idea of offering free memberships to soldiers. All they had to do was send a picture of life in Iraq or Afghanistan, and they’d get all the free porn they wanted. All sorts of images began appearing over the transom, but Wilson dedicated a special site to view the most “gory” pictures. Asked what he feels upon viewing a new crop of pictures, Wilson says: “Personally, I don’t look at it one way or another. It’s newsworthy, and people can form their own opinions.”

Wilson’s Web site has made the news before – but not for posting pictures of murdered human beings. Last October, the New York Post reported that the Pentagon was investigating Wilson for posting naked pictures of female soldiers in Iraq. After a few months, the Post reported that the Pentagon had blocked soldiers in Iraq from accessing the Web site, which had posted five more pictures of nude female soldiers, some of whom had posed with machine guns and grenades. After the Post’s stories, Wilson says, he was bombarded with requests for interviews from newspapers and radio stations. Even after he started posting photographs of corpses late last year, media inquiries focused exclusively on his nudie pics. It wasn’t until reporters from the European press contacted him last week that anyone took notice of Wilson’s snuff-for-porn arrangement with American troops.

“The soldiers thing, I think the Italians picked it up first,” Wilson says. “I’ve done interviews with the Italians, the French, Amsterdam. … They were very critical, saying the US wouldn’t pick it up, because it’s such a sore spot. … It raises too many ethical questions. …. I started to laugh, because it’s true.”

According to Army spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Chris Conway, Pentagon policy may be ambivalent when it comes to soldiers posting pictures of mutilated war victims. “There are policies in place that, on the one hand, safeguard sensitive and classified information, and on the other hand protects the First Amendment rights of servicemembers,” he says, adding that field commanders may issue additional directives. “In plain English, if you’re on the job working for the Department of Defense, you shouldn’t be freelancing. You should be doing your duty.”

If American soldiers are always considered representatives of their government while in the field, international law clearly prohibits publishing and ridiculing images of war dead. The First Protocol of the Geneva Conventions states that “the remains of persons who have died for reasons related to occupation or in detention resulting from occupation or hostilities … shall be respected, and the gravesites of all such persons shall be respected, maintained, and marked.” The first Geneva Convention also requires that military personnel “shall further ensure that the dead are honorably interred, if possible according to the rites off the religion to which they belonged.”

Nothing about this appalling trade could begin to be called “honorable.” This latest scandal doesn’t just demean the bodies of the dead – it demeans us all, in ways we won’t begin to understand for years. One of the pictures on Wilson’s site depicts a woman whose right leg has been torn off by a land mine, and a medical worker is holding the mangled stump up to the camera. The woman’s vagina is visible under the hem of her skirt. The caption for this picture reads: “Nice puss – bad foot.”
