Craig Murray’s British Torture Memos

Well, it looks like the UK may have one-upped us on torture. Sure, Condi went around trying to talk out the side of her mouth , and pretend we didn't kidnap (extraordinary rendition) and take people to other countries to be tortured. Sure, McCain finally got Bush to agree to his ban on torture (clearly only because of public opinion, and not because Bush has any problem with torturing, "So long as he is the dictator"). Craig Murray, former ambassador to Uzbekistan has released documents, some say to help sell his new book. Regardless of his motives, if the documents he released against the governments will are true, they demonstrate outright lies, and our government has blood on it's hands too. As KOS points out, this isn't just your "run of the mill" stand on a box and be electrocuted, or threatened by dogs.

"The US marriage of convenience with Uzebekistan, perhaps the most repressive regime in the world, gives lies to all the bullshit post-WMD justifications for invading Iraq ("evil regime" and all that jazz). Among other atrocities, Uzbekistan boils its dissidents alive. And no, that's not from Amnesty International or other "do-gooder" organization, but from the State Department's 2004 human rights report."

Is this what we have come to? Unfortunatley that seems to be the case. Who are the "terrorists" now?

Demand some answers!

George W. Bush, April 20, 2004:"Now, by the way, any time you hear the United States government talking about wiretap, it requires -- a wiretap requires a court order. Nothing has changed, by the way. When we're talking about chasing down terrorists, we're talking about getting a court order before we do so."

Yet another lie from our president. Just lovely.........

Join me to demand censure for Bush and Cheney in addition to the creation of a Special Committee to investigate impeaching the Bush Administration for its widespread abuses of power.
