Reminder that they only released the torture images featuring the adult male prisoners, because they feared the backlash if the other torture victims photos were released.

This is what Žižek called the “unknown known” in reference to Donald Rumsfeld’s famous speech. That America had, all along, and knew that it had, all along, the capacity for evil and torture, but chose not to confront it or admit it prior to the war.

Side note: Zizek supports nearly every US war, and isn't to be listened to on really any topic.
