I notice that "super mod" is allowed to post links to graphic images but us regular folks are not. This is a clear foul.
Rules should be enforced equally across the board or not at all.

You posted a link to a beheading video. You gave no warning of its graphic content, you titled your link with a false and misleading description and you are well aware that you were hoping to expose members of A.com to scenes of graphic violence by a deception.
The photographs you seem to think have some equivalence are clearly captioned 'Images from Abu Ghraib: Photos of Iraqis being abused by US personnel'. The photographs were actually taken by U.S. military personnel and have been widely published in the media. Members accessing the link have a choice not to view the images if they so wish as the headline states quite clearly what the content is. This was not the case with the beheading video you attempted to trick people into viewing as the video launched immediately on clicking the link.
You seem to have a handicap when it comes to trying to be smart - you aren't. Your appeal for fair play rings hollow in light of the deception you attempted in order to lure people into seeing an act of horrific violence.
If your motive was that you were angered by scenes of Iraqis being tortured by sick and depraved American servicemen then I suggest that you complain to your political representatives in the U.S.A. or to Pentagon officials and demand that such barbarism cease.
The thread on which you attempted to post your graphic video was one dealing with U.S. abuses of prisoners. The photographs were directly related to the topic of American abuse of helpless prisoners.
If you wish to glorify violence you should consider creating your own website, your attempts to post materials produced by beheaders and that promote their agendas will not be tolerated here.
Fair enough?

Al-Khiyal,
1. The link you posted goes directly to an image of a person with part of his head missing.
2. You gave no prior warning.
3. Your link "invitation" gives no indication as to the graphic nature of what's on the other end.
4. You're deceitful in nature because you changed the title of your statue thread, after several responses had already been posted.
5. I'm right here. Watching you.

Perhaps add in to your post a warning about the graphic content in the link, Mr K?
