Al-Qa’da is another arm of our US Intelligence group run and financed by the criminal CIA cartel controlled by the Rothschild criminal-banking cartel. It is essential that the people not learn that the Presidency is nothing more than a theatrical performance and has been since the JFK assassination.Waterboarding 'Worked'?
Media push pro-torture message
To hear some tell it, the intelligence clues that ultimately led to Osama bin Laden's hideout in Pakistan were generated by the use of torture. But the evidence available so far does not bear this out.
You would think that if the CIA's interrogation of high-value detainees was all it took, the U.S. government would have succeeded in locating bin Laden before 2006, which is when the CIA's custody of so-called "high-value detainees" ended.... This timeline doesn’t seem to provide a lot of support for the pro-torture narrative.
Bin Laden was not a "Muslim leader"
The Washington Post this morning ponders a portion of President Obama's Sunday night speech that likely made many Americans take pause -- the portion in which the president explicitly said "bin Laden was not a Muslim leader." This key phrase directly counters an integral tenet of the "war on terror" narrative: the vision of the current era as an epic conflict between the United States and a global Muslim population supposedly guided by the al-Qaida mastermind.However, despite the ubiquity of this kind of Islamophobic "us-versus-them" framing, and despite the Post's perseverating, Obama was exactly right, and not just because, as the president correctly noted, bin Laden was "a mass murderer of Muslims" -- but because bin Laden doesn’t meet a basic definition of "Muslim leader" in terms of mass support and following in the Muslim world.
Bloggers Against Torture
Torture Is Counterproductive (The response to Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's confession proves it)
Anne Applebaum writes about the torture myth:
Given the overwhelmingly negative evidence, the really interesting question is not whether torture works but why so many people in our society want to believe that it works. At the moment, there is a myth in circulation, a fable that goes something like this: Radical terrorists will take advantage of our fussy legality, so we may have to suspend it to beat them. Radical terrorists mock our namby-pamby prisons, so we must make them tougher. Radical terrorists are nasty, so to defeat them we have to be nastier.
Perhaps it's reassuring to tell ourselves tales about the new forms of "toughness" we need, or to talk about the special rules we will create to defeat this special enemy. Unfortunately, that toughness is self-deceptive and self-destructive. Ultimately it will be self-defeating as well.
US indicting Charles Taylor...isn't it ironic..
...don't you think;Alice Fisher, assistant U.S. attorney general for the Justice Department's criminal division, said the indictment was the first time charges under the torture laws had been brought. Emmanuel faces a potential life prison sentence.Say what?
"Crimes such as these will not go unanswered," Fisher said at a news conference in Washington with Miami U.S. Attorney R. Alexander Acosta and Julie L. Myers, head of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
"This is a clear message that the United States will not be a safe haven for human rights violators," Myers said.
The Congress just passed a bill that enshrines both “harsh interrogation” methods and denies habeas corpus for anyone who is accused of “purposefully and materially supporting hostilities against the United States” no matter if that support came in the shape of donating money to a cause only to find out that the cause was a front for “terrorists.” In voting for this bill, the Congress has eviscerated major portions of our Bill of Rights and what it means to be a liberal democracy as envisioned by our founding fathers. With less than a week of debate, they have set the United States on the road to being a banana republic where the rule of law no longer applies.
So why is this bill so dangerous? And what does this portend for our future?
The danger arises from the secret, unaccountable license for brutality.
