Am I the only one who hates the heavily calculated terminology that the US is using here? Slaughterhouse? The thing that really bothers me is that the word 'slaughterhouse' gives the connotation that hundreds of captives have been killed in these places. Is that the case? I don't think hundreds of hostages have been executed in all Iraq.
I agree. It's text book propaganda. They choose these words to envoke emotions in people back home that will cover up the emotions they have when hearing about casualties. [/b][/quote]
Yeah, right.

Are they exaggerating? No.

If those places are where the beheadings have been filmed and carried out they are slaughterhouses. How is it propoganda?
