Terrorism & Torture and the WH

[SeaBob]

Recently terrorism took on a new face and a new name. It now wears a suit and tie, is generally obese and calls its members represenative and senator. Terrorists now destroy our country with legal manuverings and behind closed doors rather than bombs. They are far more deadly than any man or woman holding a gun. They prey on the poor, ignorant, infirm, disenfranchised, and the middle class. They think they are above the law. They rape the environment where ever they want in this country or any country that they feel they can squeeze a dollar from no matter what the cost in human lives.

Torture is is the infliction of severe physical or psychological torment as an expression of cruelty, a means of intimidation, deterrent, revenge or punishment, or as a tool for the extraction of information or confessions.

Torture is almost universally considered to be an extreme violation of human rights, as stated by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Signatories of the Third Geneva Convention and Fourth Geneva Convention agree not to torture protected persons (enemy civilians and POWs) in armed conflicts, and signatories of the UN Convention Against Torture agree not to intentionally inflict severe pain or suffering on anyone, to obtain information or a confession, to punish them, or to coerce them or a third person. These conventions and agreements notwithstanding, it is estimated by organizations such as Amnesty International that around 2/3 of countries do not consistently abide by the spirit of such treaties.

Lets be honest here, we are not exporting Democracy we are exporting Capatalism so we can obtain oil and benefit croniesof the Current White House Staff, and torture is this administrations favorite method of choice
