Busted Pentagon: Why the photos probably do show detainees sodomized and raped
by Naomi Wolf

The Telegraph of London broke the news - because the US press is in a drugged stupor -- that the photos Obama is refusing to release of detainee abuse depict, among other sexual tortures, an American soldier raping a female detainee and a male translator raping a male prisoner. The paper claims the photos also show anal rape of prisoners with foreign objects such as wires and lightsticks. Major General Antonio Taguba calls the images `horrific' and `indecent' (but absurdly agrees that Obama should not release them - proving once again that the definition of hypocrisy is the assertion that the truth is in poor taste)....

War on Terror by Any Other Name
by John Cusack

Like many other American progressive-types (title for sake of argument), I voted for Obama and hope every day he'll facilitate the change he promised. A big part of the change progressives interpreted that promise to mean was to bring an end to the Bush administration's "War on Terror." The White House no longer uses the term -- but how much of a break has the new administration really made?...

My opinion, If Bush and Cheney and others can be charged and tried over this...

Perhaps it would be fair if Obama was also tried as an accessory after the fact. If he continues as he is going, he surely would be guilty.

The US media, including Naomi Wolf, censors the fact that the "male prisoner" is the child of a prisoner, raped while his parents are made to watch. And the woman prisoner was raped in fron of her husband. While GW Bush watched on DVD.

This I don't doubt. John Yoo and Jay Bybee have all but admitted as much in their "justifications" for torture, stating that "it would depend on the President's intent" whether or not crushing a child's testicles in front of his parents would constitute torture or not, or if it was permissable to rape a child in front of his or her parents in the name of "interrogation".

Quote:

From Wiki, et al:
On December 1, 2005, Yoo appeared in a debate in Chicago with University of Notre Dame professor Doug Cassel. During the debate Cassel asked Yoo, "If the president deems that he's got to torture somebody, including by crushing the testicles of the person's child, there is no law that can stop him?", to which Yoo replied "No treaty." Cassel followed up with "Also no law by Congress — that is what you wrote in the August 2002 memo...", to which Yoo replied "I think it depends on why the President thinks he needs to do that."

This part I doubt.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


Christ! So where's the line to get into to give Obama a swift kick where it hurts????

We should have strapped him into a glider, filled it nose heavy w/ explosives, and dropped his Allah lovin' ass into a large, empty field. After which, release wild boars into the area so they could make good use of his remains. Now THAT's justice.- rappy

Yeah, that's what Sheikh Issa said. Seems you both have a lot in common.- signy

Fair to say, but the way I see it, "could be worse" thinking is what gets us into these messes. We gotta quit settling for "not-quite-as-bad-as-the-other-guy".

We've got a system that let's us choose from two, pre-approved, "safe" candidates. I don't know what it'll take to break through that.

Usually it requires either an invasion, or a civil war to foster the total makeover of a political system.

or a coup....
