The Land of the Free (bad photos)


The US Defence Secretary has succeeded in stonewalling the release of American troops torturing terror suspects in the occupied territories of Afghanistan and Iraq. His request was backed by the Obama Administration on the grounds that the publication of such graphic photos could subject US soldiers to a greater risk than they already experience in those two countries. The ACLU has argued that that 21 of these images represent ‘an important part of the historical record”. In truth their release will shed more light on the widespread abuse of prisoners held by the US military without ever reveal the true extent of the CIA Rendition Program.

Murder, torture, blackmail ad nauseum.

“Say it ain’t so.”

GW Bush protested the drastic measures of the CIA, US Military, and their private contractors prevented acts of terror against America, especially through his Vice President Dick Cheney.

“In seeking to guard this nation against the threat of catastrophic violence, our administration gave intelligence officers the tools and lawful authority they needed to gain vital information.”

President Obama has supposedly closed the secret prison and detainee ships around the globe and said about the previous practices of the Bush Administration, “Our [former] government made decisions based upon fear rather than foresight and all too often trimmed facts and evidence to fit ideological predispositions. In other words, we went off course.”

Really far off course and Defense Secretary Robert Gates shows that off-course is someplace where the CIA and Pentagon feel really comfortable.

Win Lose or Draw.

Let there be light and the truth will set us free.
