Anonymous Coward User ID: 36419971 United States 04/18/2013 08:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Article at link below makes some point. What is interesting in the article is the mention of past punishments for torture. Little will come of latest investigation. [link to www.secretsofthefed.com] From article: –A Japanese General was summarily executed by the US allies for waterboarding pilots who had been caught in the Jimmy DoLittle Raid on Tokyo. – US Army soldiers during the Vietnam War summarily placed in prison for waterboarding Viet Cong prisoners of war. –In 1948, Norwegians executed German SS officers practicing ‘enhanced interrogation techniques’ called ‘Versharfte Vernehmung’ developed by Gestapo Chief Heinrich Muller, using ‘sleep deprivation’, ‘extreme cold’, ‘suspension in stress positions’ and ‘deliberate exhaustion’. –Navy Captain Albert Shimkus Jr, who ran a hospital for the prisoners at Gitmo protested the unethical behavior. – Bill Clinton, Sandy Berger approved rendition. –Bush jr, Rumsfeld, Cheney, Condi, Steve Hadley, Elliot Abrams, Gen. David Petraeus, Jose Rodriguez [head of CIA Covert operations], John Brennan, David Addington [WH staff], all approved the use of severe interrogation methods including hypothermia, waterboarding, stress positions, abdominal beatings, genital torture, and other bodily and psychological harm according to Department of Justice Concurrence of Attorney General John Ashcroft as written in the paper by John Yoo. Also concurring to these aforementioned methods were NSA Director General Michael Hayden, SecState Collin Powell, and DCI George Tenet . –The only official to dissent officially and was subsequently reprimanded was Philip Zelikow, PhD who wrote a memo contesting the DOJ’s Torture Memo written by John Yoo and others in “Justice”. – Karl Rove told BBC in 2010: ”I’m proud that we kept the world safer than it was, by the use of these techniques. They’re appropriate, they’re in conformity with our international requirements and with US law”. –Cheney: ” I was and remain a strong proponent of our enhanced interrogation program.” –Congresswoman, later Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi [D, Cal. San Francisco] in a meeting with the CIA/Bush Jr Administration—WHOLEHEARTEDLY SUPPORTED ENHANCED INTERROGATION AND TORTURE! |

Boston attacks - ff diversionary tactics from constitution report indicting Clinton, Bush, Obama Www.constitutionproject.org In the most ambitious effort so far by an independent, bipartisan group to assess American detention and interrogation programs after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, a Constitution Project panel has concluded that “it is indisputable that the United States engaged in the practice of torture” in its treatment of detainees. In its 577-page report, the panel said the brutality was unique in U.S. history because of the “considered and detailed discussions that occurred after 9/11 directly involving a president and his top advisers on the wisdom, propriety and legality of inflicting pain and torment on some detainees in our custody,” the New York Times (reg. req.) recounts. The panel said there is no justification for torture and said there is no persuasive evidence that what the U.S. did produced any valuable information that could not have been obtained through less objectionable means. |

It is not torture, it is enhanced interrogation. Right, whatever. These TORTURE tactics are nothing new. They have been around for a long time. The only thing new is not calling them what they are. TORTURE. People in power, despite what they think, really are only best at fooling themselves. |

People in power, despite what they think, really are only best at fooling themselves. This is one of the most empowering sentences I've ever read in a decade at GLP. If nothing else, we should all always remember this. The ONLY thing that gives people in power any legitimacy is our acquiescence with their opinions of themselves, our ability to deny the truth - which is that they are fooling themselves and are very much hoping that we're fooled too. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 38375714 THIS! DOJ ruled on Bush administration's activities. Obama is the only one who is above the law. He doesn't even ask for DOJ rulings, just does it. One of the most important aspects of conspiracy theories is being able to discern when there isn't one. Oh yeah, like you'd understand anyway. Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket?. . .J. Handy |

Powell read out the LIE about Iraq's 'weapons of mass distraction'. Bush SAT THERE while Operation Demolition took place in central Manhattan. Cheney and Rumsfeld, well ... Obama won a Nobel Peace Prize, ffs. |

There is something seriously wrong with that guy. In the face of what we are all facing in this world and to make that documentary and say those things just makes me shake my head and say I am glad I am not that evil. Although I have my share of problems he is twisted. What is scary is the amount of power he has. |
