The remaining Abu Ghraib images

Today is the extended deadline for the release of the remaining images.  Any word what happened?

I am amazed at how easily this one thing drops off my own radar.  I guess this has something to do with how little I see mentioned of it online or in the media, and it illustrates how powerful the media's affect is on us.

But I'm just rehashing my last diary, from the last deadline.  And this has the same purpose:  as an open thread for people who have any information about what happened today.

I'd like to add, by the way, that I personally disapprove of the common cynical responses that these pictures will never see the light of day.  That is as much an indictment of ourselves for not being proper watchdogs, as it is of the people running the government.

The best thing you can do is believe that these pictures will be released, if only you push hard enough.  At the grass roots level, the least you can do is a little work to keep the public aware that this thing is still out there.  This could mean reminding people you know, or writing a letter to the editor or sending an email to CNN.  It doesn't have to be a rant; the facts alone should be sufficient to convince people that this is news, happening right now, that just isn't being reported.
