Quote: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/naomi-wolf/busted-pentagon-why-the-p_b_209046.html 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)....

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?...

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." -- William Casey, Reagan's presidential campaign manager & CIA Director (from first staff meeting in 1981)
Quote:Originally posted by piratenews: 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.
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."

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. SergeantX "It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah"
