Court rules Rumsfeld can be held liable for torture of U.S. civilians in Iraq

~

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit on Monday refused to dismiss a lawsuit against former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld for creating policies that caused American civilians to be tortured by the U.S. military in Iraq.

In a 2 to 1 decision, the court ruled that the lawsuit filed by Donald Vance and Nathan Ertel, two American citizens who were allegedly tortured at a U.S. military prison in Iraq in 2006, provided adequate evidence that Rumsfeld was personally responsible for their treatment and that Rumsfeld was not entitled to qualified immunity.

Navy Commandos Expect Their Shrinks to Be Waterboarded (tortured) (VIDEO)

George W. Bush, the father of legalized waterboarding torture

Want to help Navy SEALs stay mentally fit enough to survive capture by the enemy? Good. Just let me put this cloth over your face while I fill my water bucket.

The military trains its troops to deal with the contingencies of getting stranded behind enemy lines. That involves passing a rigorous course called Survival Evasion Resistance Escape, or SERE — which, for elite commandos, simulates capture and torture.

If SERE sounds familiar, that’s probably because former Air Force psychologists involved in the program brought its harshest methods, like waterboarding, to the CIA shortly after 9/11 for use against captured terrorists. The rest is infamy.

Obama declares Bradley Manning guilty before he has been tried by saying, "He broke the law!"

~

"Ï know he did it. He confessed!"

Obama told activist Logan Price in an exchange caught on camera that Manning, 23, had acted irresponsibly and risked the lives of US service members by allegedly sending secret military and diplomatic documents to the website.

"He broke the law," Obama said.

"We're a nation of laws. We don't let individuals make their own decisions about how the laws operate."

Manning supporters maintain that Obama's comments as-commander-in-chief could prejudice the deliberations of a jury of military officers at Manning's eventual military trial.

"President Obama is the commander-in-chief. The jury that demands the guilt or innocence of Bradley Manning will be made up of military officers under his command," said Kevin Zeese, a Bradley Manning Support Group lawyer.

CIA Balanced Budget thanks to Low-Cost Uzbeki Torture

Uzbekistan – a Central Asian shithole and ex- Soviet state basket case of a country – located a wee bit below Russia

According to a scathing report published today in the International Daily, the CIA relied on military intelligence extracted from Jolly Jihadi Muslim prisoners by methods of torture at extraordinary rendition centres in Uzbekistan.

Uz-beki-where? someone shouts from the depths of cyberspace.
Uzbekistan – a Central Asian shithole and ex- Soviet state basket case of a country – located a wee bit below Russia but doubly land-locked and surrounded by a motley collection of similar basket case Islamic ‘Stans’ – including Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and – everybody’s favourite dump of a poppy farm – Afghanistan.

Okay, let’s take a step back here for a moment. WTF are the CIA doing sending purported Islamic terrorists to Uzbekistan to be tortured for when they have Israeli’s expert Mossad Renta-Thug squad quite capable and willing to expedite the same interrogative services with even more practiced gusto?
