Does this look familiar? . . . .

It should. It is starkly reminiscent of this photo (you can click on the link - decorum prohibits my posting it on this site).

No ifs ands or buts . . . nos imperium Romanum sumus.

There's nothing more to say about this - the Roman mosaic with a criminal exposed to the beasts and the Abu Ghraib photo side by side speaks for itself.

"Lost in a Roman wilderness of pain, and all the children are insane. All the children are insane. Waiting for the summer rain."

- Jim Morrison
