WATCHING AMERICA- "Champion of Human Rights" (USA)?

As a citizen of the United States I think all decent Americans should be ashamed of this horrific torture report. If torture works for the CIA, then why not for its fanatical Islamic enemies -who also have a grievance list: against INFIDEL OCCUPIERS ?

The United States government is not above international law. The guilty individuals should be delivered to the World Court. They must stand trial for crimes against humanity.

The U.S. military has lost all moral credibility in its war against terrorism. The capitalist news media here conditions the people for a brainless acceptance of all wars -no matter how foolish or criminal. Returning soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan are often greeted with a moronic " thank you for your service." But the unquestioning " good citizen " never inquires about the nature of this " service." Thank you for killing innocent civilians? That you for torturing helpless prisoners? Thank you for serving as soldiers of fortune in a land of endless war?

Perhaps if a million people protest in Washington, D.C.-as they did in Cairo, Egypt in 2011 - this nightmare will come to an end.

The terrorism of the enemy is rooted in unbearable cultural oppression-not the religion of Islam. The terrorism of the CIA is rooted in "The Arrogance of Power." That was the title of a book written by Senator J. William Fulbright during the Vietnam War era. A popular 60s protest song is still relevant today: "The Eve of Destruction." And also quite relevant the lyrics of another popular anti-war song: "when will they ever learn... when will they ever learn. . . ?"
