++The Pentagon represented by Rear Admiral Sinclair Harris put forward to the U.S. District Court that they are refusing to release the 2,100-plus photos of detentions because they would endanger American lives.
++The Pentagon said that the photos show simulating anal rape and holdings guns to the detainees' heads.
++The Pentagon said that ISIS uses imagery from American detentions to recruit members. They point to the use of the Orange jumpsuits used by ISIS for their captives being copied from Gitmo.
++The Pentagon argues that the detention photos would give ISIS, who were not in existence then, a propaganda victory.
++The Case was brought by the ACLU in 2004. Judge Alvin Helberstein could rule as early as January 20 whether the photos should be released.
