Пытка работаемая для того чтобы продать войну Ирака
Воскресенье 25-ое апрель 2009
3 cheers для Dickа Cheney. Бывший недостаток - президент принуждал, как бы риторически, что отпуск администрации Obama больше памяток пыткой. «Одна из вещей я считаю немного нарушать о этом недавнем разоблачении будет ими положило вне законные памятки, памятки которые C I A получило от офиса законных консультантов, но они не положили вне памятки которые показали успех усилия,» бывший недостаток - президент сказанное FoxNews. » Я теперь официально спрашивал C I A для того чтобы предпринять declassify те памятки поэтому мы можем положить их вне там и американские люди имеют шанс увидеть мы получили и мы выучили и как хорошо сведения была.» Выпуски новостей отличают as to whether г-н. Cheney официально делало запрос, но он совершенно прав который американским людям нужно для того чтобы увидеть вполне показатель. Он неправильн о показатель покажет. От уже выпущенного материала или ferreted вне журналистами, оно ясно что он и г-н. Кустик преуспел в использовании пытки, главным образом к безопасный необходимой сведении, но создать пропаганду, котор они использовали продать их нашествие Ирака. Доказательство приходит от разнообразия источников, включая обработка отчет о воискаа detainees, которые датчик. Комитет armed services Карл Levin как раз выпускал. Рапорт показал что должностные лица пентагона начали подготовлять использовать пытку - или «ругательные методы расспрашивания» - начиная с декабря 2001. Это было меньш чем через 2 месяца после старта война в Афганистане и 8 месяцев прежде чем министерство юстиции дало законное утверждение в 2 памятках датированных 1-ое августа 2002, и подписал Джэй Bybee, attorney general после этого-ассистента для офиса законных консультантов. Первая памятка redefined физическая и умственная пытка и предложила что президент, действуя pursuant to его конституционные силы как commander-in-chief, смог отвергнуть федеральное anti-пытает законоположение. Вторые проанализированные и одобренные специфически тактик расспрашивания, включая изоляцию, увеличиваемое лишение сна, положения усилия и waterboarding, которое делает жертву чувствовать что он тонет. If not законоведы отдела правосудия, дали более предыдущий go-ahead? Отчет о сената одевает в onus сразу decider-в-вождь, президент George W. Bush. Кустик. 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.
