Re: New Abu Ghraib images broadcast

I'm pretty sure the reaction will be negative. Question is not what, but by whom. By that, I mean that, as one of my professors (he's traveled a fair amount in the Middle East) asserts, the people there don't just riot and demonstrate spontaneously. He feels, with regard to the cartoons, that Iran and Syria, both of which's gov'ts aren't terribly popular, used the cartoons to redirect anger against them towards the West. And I suspect that'll be pretty much the same w/ these images, although likely on a lesser scale.
