苦悶はイラク戦争を販売するために働いた

土曜日、2009年4月25日

Dick Cheneyのための3つの喝采。 前の副大統領は、こと苦悶のメモのObamaの管理解放もっとどんなに修辞的にせき立てた。 「私がこの最近の発表についての少し妨害を見つける事の1つそれら消した法的メモ、CIAが弁護士のオフィスから得たが、努力の成功を示したメモを」、はFoxNewsを言われた前の副大統領消さなかったメモをである。

    」私は今形式的にそれらのメモ従って私達を公開するためにステップを踏むCIAがそこにそれらを置くことができる、そしてアメリカの人々に私達が、そして私達が得たものもの、そしてよい知性が」。学んだかいかにあった見るチャンスがあることを頼んだ

    ニュースレポートはかどうかについて氏異なる。 Cheneyは形式的に要求をしたが、完全な記録を見ることをアメリカの人々は必要とする彼は絶対に正しい。 彼は記録が示すものをについて間違っている。 既にジャーナリストが解放しか、または探し出し、材料から明確ことは彼そして氏である。 ブッシュは主に必要な知性を使用に保証したり、それらがイラクの侵入を販売するのが常であった宣伝を作成するのに苦悶の、成功したが。

    証拠は軍隊の上院議員抑留者の処置のレポートを含む色々な源から、来る。 カールLevinの軍委員会はちょうど解放した。 レポートは米国国防総省の役人が- 2001年12月には早くも…苦悶を-または「乱用の質問の技術」使用するために準備し始めたことを明らかにした。 これはの開始の後のより少しにより2か月だった 戦争 アフガニスタンでは法務省が2002年8月1日日付を記入された2つのメモの法的承認をジェイBybee、弁護士のオフィスのための助手の司法長官によって与えた8か月前に署名し。 最初のメモは物理的な、精神苦悶を定義し直し、最高司令官として彼の体質性力に従って行動している大統領が反無理に曲る法令を中央政府を打ち消すことができることを提案した。 犠牲者を彼は浸っていることに感じさせる第2分析され、承認され、特定の質問の作戦、分離を含んで、延長された睡眠の剥奪、圧力の位置そしてwaterboarding。

    そうでなかったら司法省弁護士はより早い許可を与えただれ、か。 上院のレポートはdecider責任者、ジョージW.大統領に責任を直接置く。 ブッシュ。 He issued a written determination on February 7, 2002, “that Common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions, which would have afforded minimum standards for humane treatment, did not apply to al-Qaeda or Taliban detainees.”

    Former White House terrorist adviser Richard Clarke has confirmed that Mr. Bush gave an informal go-ahead even earlier. According to Clarke’s account in his book, “Against All Enemies,” Bush addressed his national security advisers late on September 11, 2001. “We are at war and we will stay at war until this is done,” Bush told them. “Any barriers in your way, they’re gone.” Later he added in a heated exchange with Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, “I don’t care what the international lawyers say, we are going to kick some ass.”

    The Senate report also pointed the finger at Mr. Cheney and other top officials of the Bush administration. “Members of the President’s Cabinet and other senior officials participated in meetings inside the White House in 2002 and 2003 where specific interrogation techniques were discussed,” the committee concluded. “National Security Council principals reviewed the CIA’s interrogation program during that period.”

    Why so much attention from the top? McClatchy news has provided the obvious answer. According to a former senior US intelligence official and a former Army psychiatrist, the Bush administration wanted “to find evidence of cooperation between al-Qaeda and the late Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein’s regime.”

    ”There were two reasons why these interrogations were so persistent, and why extreme methods were used,” said the former official. “The main one is that everyone was worried about some kind of follow-up attack (after 9/11). But for most of 2002 and into 2003, Cheney and Rumsfeld, especially, were also demanding proof of the links between al-Qaeda and Iraq that (former Iraqi exile leader Ahmed) Chalabi and others had told them were there.”

    In part to get that smoking gun, the CIA waterboarded Khalid Sheikh Mohammed 183 times and Abu Zubaydah 83 times. But neither man told the interrogators what Bush and Cheney wanted to hear about Iraq and al-Qaeda. That came from Ibn al Sheikh al Libi, whom the Bush administration sent to Egypt for what CIA Director George Tenet called “further debriefing.” As PBS Frontline reported back in November 2007, al Libi “confessed” - after being beaten repeatedly and locked in a small box for some 17 hours - that Saddam Hussein had trained al-Qaeda in chemical weapons. Al Libi later retracted his statement and the CIA later rejected it as reliable intelligence. But the torture of al Libi worked to sell the war in Iraq, providing the “evidence” that Secretary of State Colin Powell used when he spoke before the United Nations Security Council in February 2003.

    ”I can trace the story of a senior terrorist operative telling how Iraq provided training in these [chemical and biological] weapons to al-Qaeda,” Powell asserted. “Fortunately, this operative is now detained, and he has told his story.”

    Torture might not work as well as conventional interrogation to provide sound intelligence, but it certainly worked for Bush and Cheney in exactly the way they most wanted.

    I hope people do something. Even John McCain who helped write a torture law has decided that torture should not be looked into and no one (yes, NO ONE) should be held accountable. That is a coward.
