bismi-lLahi-rRahmani-rRahiem In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful === News Update === 9/11 : Report on Guantanamo torture is released by Center for Constitutional Rights The 51 page "Report on Torture and Cruel, Inhuman, and Degrading Treatment of Prisoners at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba" is drawn from primary accounts given by current detainees and their American attorneys at the Guantánamo Bay prison.

Rumsfeld decision. http://www.rawstory.com/news/2006/Report_on_Guantanamo_torture_released_by_0710.html === 9/11 : CCR Report In Full Report Details Recent Torture and Inhumane Treatment in Violation of U.S. Law and the Supreme Courts Recent Hamdan Decision; http://tinyurl.com/ow8k5 === 9/11 : Report on Torture at Gitmo Posted Jul 10, 2006 08:29 AM PST - Category: TORTURE SCANDAL Groundbreaking 51-Page Report Details Recent Torture and Inhumane Treatment in Violation of U.S. Law and the Supreme Courts Recent Hamdan Decision. Very slow feed but worth the wait. http://www.ccr-ny.org/v2/reports/docs/Torture_Report_Final_version.pdf === 9/11 : Guantanamo prisoners won't be moved to US: White House Criticism of the treatment of detainees has led to international calls to close Guantanamo, where three prisoners committed suicide on June 10. The White House says Guantanamo cannot be closed until its prisoners are either repatriated or tried. So what happens if they are neither repatriated or tried? Untried, unconvicted, yet serving a life sentence? http://www.rawstory.com/showarticle.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Freuters.myway.com%2Farticle%2F20060710%2F2006-07-10T201355Z_01_N1084232_RTRIDST_0_NEWS-SECURITY-GUANTANAMO-DC.html === 9/11 : Guantanamo Bay detainees face 'systematic' abuse Prisoners at the US detention center at Guantanamo Bay have been subjected to "systematic physical, psychological, sexual, medical and religious abuse," according to a report released Monday by the Center for Constitutional Rights http://tinyurl.com/mecav === 9/11 : Records Show Pentagon Silence Led to Prisoner Abuses New documents show senior Defense officials ignored the request by military commanders to clarify interrogation methods. http://www.aclu.org/safefree/torture/26099prs20060710.html === Dictatorship : Generalissimo Bush - A Clear And Present Danger To The Republic The major crisis facing American democracy and its long-standing Republican form of government, especially the carefully crafted tri-partite separation of powers into executive, judicial and legislative, is at root the result of the deliberate conflation by President Bush and Vice President Cheney of the title commander in chief with the concept of generalissimo--a role exemplified by such benighted leaders as Mussolini and Franco in Europe, Chiang Kai-shek in Taiwan, and a host of Latin American dictators. http://www.rense.com/general72/fene.htm === War Crime : Amnesty accuses Algeria of torture Human rights organisations issued regular denunciations of gas-rich Algeria during the 1990s civil strife, provoked by the armys cancellation of elections that Islamists were set to win.

And one must love his "logic." For according to Cheney, "whether we complete the job or not in Iraq" his beloved "terrorism" will "continue" ... "only it'll get worse." http://www.uruknet.info/?p=m24493&hd=0&size=1&l=e === Newsweek's Man in Baghdad: Iraq Is "Doomed," Bush "Manages the News" Rod Nordland, the chief foreign correspondent for Newsweek magazine and their Baghdad bureau chief from 2003 to 2005, gave an interview to Foreign Policy magazine in which he declared that "It's a lot worse over here [in Iraq] than is reported. The administration does a great job of managing the news." He claimed individual reporters have been "blacklisted" because the military wasn't happy with their stories while they were embedded. He also suggested many in the military don't want to see how awful it is in Iraq because they're wishful thinkers, they don't want to see a "doomed enterprise," and are "victims of their own propaganda." http://newsbusters.org/node/6332 === Iraq says to ask U.N. to end US immunity Iraq will ask the United Nations to end immunity from local law for U.S. troops, the government said on Monday, as the U.S. military named five soldiers charged in a rape-murder case that has outraged Iraqis. http://today.reuters.com/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=newsOne&storyID=2006-07-10T210647Z_01_KAR040738_RTRUKOC_0_US-IRAQ-RAPE.xml === Iraq to ask UN to end U.S. immunity after rape case Iraq will ask the United Nations to end immunity from local law for U.S. troops, the human rights minister said on Monday, as the military named five soldiers charged in a rape-murder case that has outraged Iraqis. http://news.scotsman.com/latest.cfm?id=1007392006 === Documents prove alleged Iraqi rape-murder victim was 14, not 20 as the military says Documents obtained by Reuters on Sunday showed the rape victim was a minor aged just 14, and not over 20 as U.S. officials say.

As long as Israel is committed to ethnic cleansing, Palestinians will continue to fight for their survival.And what sane, honest and moral human being can truly blame them? Bishop Desmond Tutu once said: "If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality." http://www.aljazeerah.info/Opinion%20editorials/2006%20Opinion%20Editorials/July/10%20o/Israeli%20Savagery%20in%20Gaza%20By%20George%20Karsa.htm === The Influence of Israel and its American Lobby over US Middle East Policy The apparent ability of Israel, one of the worlds smallest countries, to shape the Middle East policies of the worlds remaining superpower has been a source of puzzlement, conjecture, and constant frustration on the part of those fighting for justice for the Palestinians and for the peoples of the region, as a whole. http://www.ziopedia.org/content/view/566/1/ === BOY DIES IN GAZA A PALESTINIAN boy of 11 died yesterday after being shot in the chest in Israel's military operation in Gaza.

Most of those refused entry are arriving from abroad, but have lived and worked for years in the West Bank. The Interior Ministry and Civil Administration made no formal announcement about a policy change, leaving returnees to discover the situation when they reach the border crossings. This is our "friend", banning Americans. http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/736349.html === ISRAEL PLANNED CAPTURE OF PALESTINIAN GOVERNMENT LONG BEFORE ALLEGED KIDNAPPING "The detention of Hamas parliamentarians in the early hours of Thursday morning had been planned several weeks ago and received approval from Mazuz on Wednesday.

Speaking during an interview which was published in Jerusalem Friday, Professor Martin Van Crevel said Israel had the capability of hitting most European capitals with nuclear weapons. "We possess several hundred atomic warheads and rockets and can launch them at targets in all directions, perhaps even at Rome. Most European capitals are targets of our air force." http://www.sweetliberty.org/issues/israel/destroycaps.html === 4 Children Killed By Israeli Occupation Forces One Palestinian was killed in another IDF attack in the Karni crossing and several others wounded. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3273621,00.html === The Wahbas' last meal It's a direct hit by the second missile fired by the excellent Israel Air Force pilot, and it comes right into the dining room through the ceiling. Fatma, three months pregnant, is killed on the spot by the shrapnel that hits her spine. Her brother, Dr. Ahmed, is also killed. His daughter-in-law miscarries her child, the little girl Farah is moderately injured and the baby of the family, Khaled, is critically injured in the head. A puddle of blood collects on the floor. http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/735520.html == UN warns of Gazans' struggle to survive He said in the north of Gaza Israeli forces had shot and destroyed rooftop water tanks and mains, while in the south more than 1,000 people had been forced to leave their homes. Rafah had no electricity because the army would not allow the UN to fix a minor fault, while the rest of Gaza had electricity for six hours a day. http://www.guardian.co.uk/print/0,,329525185-103552,00.html === 'Apartheid Israel' worse than apartheid SA The "apartheid Israel state" is worse than the apartheid that was conducted in South Africa, Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) president Willie Madisha said on Monday.

They include one trial in which drops of a poison were placed on the skin of volunteers at a dosage level believed at the time to be fatal. It is striking the extent to which these individuals were considered 'disposable' by their government. http://www.freespeechwar.com/smf/index.php?topic=1999.msg2168#msg2168 === MI5 has secret dossiers on one in 160 adults The Government was accused last night of hoarding information about people who pose no danger to this country, after it emerged that MI5 holds secret files on 272,000 individuals - a staggering one in 160 adults. http://tinyurl.com/zur2c === Dissident CIA faction 'exposed' A HIGH-ranking Republican congressman has exposed what he sees as a dissident faction within the CIA that he says "intentionally undermined" the policies of US President George W Bush. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article13939 === Hoekstra Says White House Outside the Law' The White House possibly broke the law by keeping intelligence activities a secret from the lawmakers responsible for overseeing them, the House Intelligence Committee chairman said yesterday. http://www.nysun.com/article/35694 === Bush may have broken law over intelligence The White House kept intelligence activities secret from the lawmakers responsible for overseeing them until whistleblowers revealed the programmes, the house intelligence committee chairman said yesterday. http://www.guardian.co.uk/usa/story/0,,1816660,00.html === Saving face over ID What do you get when you combine an ambitious IT scheme run by the government and a plan that threatens to ride roughshod over civil liberties?
