IRAQ/U.S. : HUMAN RIGHTS

Torture in Iraq - "What did they leave for the devil to do?"

 

no more torture
no more torture


The leaked photos of tortured prisoners in Iraq that U.S. military and government officials are now forced to deal with are truly horrific. As one Iraqi put it: "What did they leave for the devil to do?" While an increasing part of such illegal and immoral military activities are contracted out to private companies who employ ex-military personnel, there's plenty of blame to go around within the U.S. government. As military tribunals are gearing up to prosecute the lowest ranking reservist MP’s that appeared in the gruesome photos, high-ranking government sources confide that the torture was part of a top secret ‘black ops’ program to elicit information from Iraqi prisoners by subjecting them to extreme humiliation and sexual abuse. According to these sources, the program was approved by U.S Defense Secretary Rumsfeld, and overseen by his protégé, Stephen Cambone, the Under-Secretary for Intelligence. In addition, there are recent [corporate media] reports that Gen. Sanchez, Commanding General in Iraq, was involved in abuse.

Perhaps even more troubling than the individuals who committed these acts are the private companies who profit from the degradation and sexual abuse of others. One of those contractors is U.S.-based CACI. They employ 27 of the 37 interrogators working in Abu Ghraib prison. An employee, Steven Stefanowicz, was named as one of those directly involved in the torture. Apparently he still works in the prison. CACI interrogator John Israel was also named.

As the news from Abu Ghraib and other prisons in Iraq gets worse at the same time the U.S. occupation itself continues to meltdown, reaction in Washington is said to have reached panic proportions. Even Republican lawmakers and neo-conservative activists are starting to distance themselves from the White House. California Senator Nancy Pelosi went so far as to call Bush "incompetent". A statement some might feel is generous. Meanwhile, in the streets in the U.S. [1],[2], [3], [4] and the world [1],[2], protests continue with major demonstrations scheduled in the next few weeks.

A few times before I heard the Real news on www.airamericaradio.com or at indymedia it just came in my mind what was REALLY going on as the Iraqi thing was progressing. Like for example when they started showing photos of the Iraqi's being you know what. I thought that the fiends of bush and his cronies would hire "soldiers" to look like soldiers to do the stuff like they do - the porno stuff. Whenever he says he is going to set up a committee to investigate this or that or hire a group to fix things - they are all "friends"(fiends) of bush and the nazi's. They have to distribute all the BILLIONS that they took from all of YOU Folks!!! NO ONE investigates their Background!!
You won't Believe the comments of my Husband - he's a Real Card - he says bush isn't Stupid - Everything is working out, just the way he planned it!
I am sure now as a few of my aquaintances are that I've talked to - Gordon Campbell of B.C., Canada and Ralph Klein are neoNazi's because of what they've done. Ralph klein has put in a "law" that we can't walk in a public place with 3-4 or more people gathered together. That is a bunch of bunk!!! So the Edmontonians and Calgarians got together in a huge party and took over the Streets one night, sometime last year. Now for Campbell - instead of taxing the corporation he takes money away from us by cutting Social Programs and essential jobs, especially the Teacher jobs and the Health Care Worker jobs. Up in the Interior of B.C. - I think the town is called Kelowna or its of them - or it might be Vernon..well, the "government" took a job away from a manintenance man who was cutting the grass of the baseball diamonds, fix the fences and clean the washrooms and he was fired, then the "gov." suddenly says we are going to buy a 6-7 MILLION DOLLAR CITY HALL and Guess Where the $$$$$$$ mola comes from ??? Da Da Da. Please help this Woman and her Family who are being screwed over by the Family "Protection" "Services"...................BOYCOTT "Made In China"

I thought we as liberals were not supposed to believe or acknowledge that their is a "Devil", does this mean that we are to believe or acknowledge that there is a God also! I think I am as confused as you are.

All the Liberals don't have to be put in a Big Group of saying - do we believe in GOD or we don't. We all can Believe what we want. I am Not confused. I wouldn't have the Right to say all Republicans Don't believe in GOD because of their belittling tactics and they show people their self-righteous ways. You can See obviously that those ones DON'T believe in GOD. But I bet a few of the Republicans Do believe in GOD. A few of them do fight for the betterment of Woman/Mankind!

Again, the important thing to realise....

...is the 'overstanding' of the situation...where the western forces...where Bush's christian 'Jihad' is 'coming from'. Why are they behaving like this...in this degrading way towards coloured people?

The answer is that the way their 'religion'...their way of thinking,... is made, is by the means of screaming racist dodge occult rituals (IN FACT!). These 'freezing in time' rituals are also the reason why westeners are all skizted out and separtate...rather than here and now and brothers and sisters...family tribae and so. Their nation states, their realites, and their individual realities are the result of a fascist scapegoat trip.
This is the horrific reality of the 'west'.

So they (their country, their way of life, their way of thinking) are/is fucked (obviously).

The other way of looking at it that a breaking (in a Exodus like way) of this ultinate nightmare 'fear time power' is well overdue .... which will lead to massive and radical change of consciousness and reality on both an individual and community wide basis.

Take care everyone,

Peace,

Allah Akbar.

you are an idiot. before you start ranting at the behavior of other cultures take time to learn of them first. your accusations are baseless and ignorant which is why your opinions are of little value. comments such as yours are precisely the reason why liberal views are looked upon as crazy and out of touch. so do us all a favor and stick to reading opinions of others rather than giving out any that may further damage the credibility of those of us that want to make a change through reason.

Hi!


‘Don’t ch’a know it’s just paranoia, (incorrect)
Don’t ch’a know nothing can destroy you’ (POSSIBLY correct)
as the Davead Alaen (from Gong) song goes.
It’s not just paranoia, Christian vampire system – the pathogenic disease that calls itself Christianity, or perhaps ‘westworld’ would be a more appropriate description, really does have a evil pseudo occult basis. (now you know!), read on sacred mother earth lovers…
Commenting about the 'falling out' amongst the famous (UK, Luton based) exodus collective core members... ( http://www.squall.co.uk/)
1/Its crucial to remember that anyone doing this sort of thing (attempting to create a community empowerment, rather than police state) inevitably
attracts what the First Nation people of American call 'bad medicine'.
2/ (obviously), Jah Warriors are not limited to a collective/town in
Bedfordshire!
As a 'independent' Jah Warrior, the spiritual attacks that I have come under
are just incredible, and all this is bound to interplay.
The Exodus prophecy, works throughout space and time on power abusers, (sending 'the pharaoh' into a nightmare increasing at a increasing rate', as we TRANSEND to mount ZION/TRIBAL SOVERIGNTY (yes thats all that it REALLY actually means), or whatever post fear abuse power magical reality that we wish to go into...anyone or group channelling this energy in a relevant society IS BOUND to be subject to malign influences.... To wake up the whole community is bound to cosmic consciousness is bound to be a problem for 'Christian system'.... money/exploit/deal/rape......and these
negative influences channel through unexpected vessels.... not just the pigs! You are correct (Glenn, A spokeman for the collective) to identify drug dealers as (secondary)
negative influences....they have their little money making empires to
protect. Lets be honest the 'convoy’s’ (UK hippy travellers) main business at present is from
drug dealing. This must change. Jah sees.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, I also have this important and scary testament to
share - direct first witness evidence concerning the actual nature of the
'evil power' that 'we' are dealing with.
I met an amazing mixed race woman (she is actually Tibet reincarnation also, horrifyingly) through a mutual interest in
protesting...the actual issue being waste incinerators. After 2 years of
phone calls and writing, I went to meet her in Cornwall, where she lives
with her small girl child. We went on a reggae night out and returned home
drunk and stoned (on 'punter' i.e. bought for money hash), falling into bed
and making love. As we fell asleep together, united as one, we encounted a
terrifying energy, as a 'white ball'. (I think something to do with the christian anti pagan witch inquisition) Attacking this together, being also
(obviously) linked with my faithful hound 'ting', who on the floor beside
us, (but constantly in the dreamspace with me) the paralysing fear was broken, we both woke up. Now, she had already
told me ov some of her child hood experiences, but this informal 'shamanic'
trip freed her to speak. She told me that as a child, in a council housing
estate in Portsmouth, she was subjected to the most horrific torture.
Underneath her bedroom carpet there was a pentagram (with various symbols
around the points). She was on regular occasions, and over a number of
years, put inside this pentagram and sexually tortured (she did not tell me
the details of these). Bowls of shit were placed around the room. Her mother
(Indian) and step dad collaborated with this senario, and the (step) white
kids of the family were not subject to this abuse. The people that were the
abusers were police/authority/'big wigs'. Secrecy surrounded all of this
sick pseudo occult torture. It is how the 'game' of the Christian freemason
patriarchal system/mindcontrol , nay, reality control even! is created. Basically total degradation was shown to this child ov colour. Christian system really
is a vampire. Jah sees. It seemed to be some sort of psychic fear link with
the inquisition...some fucking awful bad Christian karma. I think actually
that her spirit flew into the goddess, it created a 'scitzaphreia' a
separation from the goddess, by these acts of total mother hating...anti
tribal, anti goddess. The interesting thing is that the ‘trip’ we went on together, into this evil karmic route through space and time to the inquisition, opened out through these rituals, was achieved because of the use of ‘paid for money hashish’. If the has had been given, we would have just had a good trip together, and that would be that….but I wouldn’t have found out this information, and be able to share it with you all…but more generally people, please BEWARE paid for money drugs let negative energies into your domain.
Blessed be!
Jah sees!
Since then, I've been to India, and realised many things. What it is like to
be Tibetan Royalty in a culture/community that does not seek to make
Tibetans ... thinking particularly of the reincarnated Tibetan family
traveller 'Peace Convoy', into societies scapegoats, (obviously they are
actually really , schizophrenically externalising onto deep dark mother
goddess tribe/s what is actually part ov there own making!) but instead ...
it's very difficult to describe...errm total and huge
respect!...psychic...reality generator...new landscapes even! The British
freemason's scenario is sort of diametrically opposite to the Tibetan magical
scenario. Ultimate evil, contrasting with ultimate good! It is important to
realise, that despite the horror of this knowledge, and the realisation of
what these rituals manifest as...many problems in society, hidden, from the
mainstream consciousness/awareness, (and revealed by such as the exodus
movement...thus the counteraction of 'bad medicine')....and the
rape/destruction of the sacred mother earth, and the arms dealing and
colonialisation and the racism, and all of it originating from a hidden
nightmare, resulting in this seemingly 'fixed' reality, and ruthlessly
alienated overindividualistic society...with a load of plastic wanker
freemasons riding on all of this abuse at the top... The demon vampire scum
that call themselves the Windsor’s being the head of the British
freemasons....(and a load of 'very helpful' , disrespectful egoising little
drongo's, snapping around yer ankles, trying to disrupt Jah Warriors from
channelling the positive reality!!!). However karma is moving on, it is the
end of this era of anti mother fear, and when the fear power is broken, JAH
LIVE!
....the fixed nature of reality is no more...one/we entire shapeshift world,
a world of magic. Blessed be! I should also say, the Tibetan connection here
that this woman, Jayne, is a tribal Tibetan shapeshift witch, when coming
together in love (as we moved together) this generates a energy that changes
the whole of the external reality...and creates a reality change that
immediately puts the authorities into what amounts to a chaos trap (or
exodus!), they immediately attack this reality, attempting to send the
channel/s into fear, thus regaining the status quo. It can be totally
enraging when this happens! The important thing to remember is that it is an
inevitable process! The tide coming in! They are fucked! I find that a
outlet for 'the rage' and a positive sacrament is 'PIXYING'...I've pixied
literally hundreds of earth raping machines (usually on my own), and the
Goddess and the Creator protects, if necessary by changing space and
time!...regardless of here and now. All is not what it seems. OM shanti! OM
shiva shanti shiva, OM shanti shanti shakti!
I do this pixying by just dropping some nearby mother earth into the fuel
tanks, ideally the central supply tanker...note all kinds of operations can
be targeted, don't get stuck on roadworks, use you imagination. OM Shiva!
OM SHANTI!
Bear all this in mind exodus collective, stay strong and try (I know myself
that this can be difficult in the circumstances) to stay peaceful. It is
always 'Christian system’s game to try and lower or break the degree of our
magical powers...that are strongest with purity, non violence. I in my own
family have the problem that black born again, pentacostalists (my brother
in law) are basing their reality around my 'attempted' scapegoating...the
actual physic process is terrifying, unbelievably disrespectful and just
plain stupid. Christianity is a white supremacists 'trick', be it white or
black Christianity. Its incredible to see the other side of the coin to
these rituals being channelled in your own family, literally how the
(western, usually white skin) ego is 'constructed' in the small
child....literally how the ego is made!...by pushing native tribal people/witches/spiritual channels into total psychic fear! Loads of new age
scenarios are the same, scapegoating egoists...worse than the Nazi's! These forces will fail. reality will change.
Many bright blessings and good health to his Holiness the Dalai Lama,
sublime being ov luminous white light!
Tibetan warrior, Ling Gesar, King of Amdo, a province of Tibet, Supposedly
reincarnating as the REAL Arthur pendragon, as part of the cosmic 'game plan' to rebalance tribal karma in the 'new age'..if / when this happens it will be a totally, and I mean TOTALLY different reality....we are talking huge psychic
powers...anyone who has been to India will know that Side’s/witches have
these powers naturally, and it is merely the above described nature ov
Christianity that reduces us to disempowered unbelieving zombies. However. With the discovery of this knowledge, of the ritualistic rape of our selves, in the aspect of deep Danna, it seems likely that the whole of westworld will go into the tribal goddess reality to heal.
Speaking personally it would really be very nice if the 'local crew' to myself in north
Wales would donate a decent amount of cannabis to myself instead of
'freezing up', putting on a front, attempting to crucially subjugate my will
to theirs, and trying to sell me gear....Remember scum, you are just drug
dealers I am Tibetan Royalty. It seems either consciously or just though
disrespect that they seek to perpetuate the system, the untruth, the game,
the lie, the abuse, the rape and the police state mind control. Jah sees.
Honestly from the viewpoint of India it is unbelievable, just massive
massive disrespect has been shown to myself. And 'dealing convoy' YOU are
responsible for this slide into illusion. you should fucking well know
better. I think that the solution, is to ban the sale of drugs and the
distribution of chemicals). A respectful donation would give psychic
solidarity so that all the various negative energies could not unbalance
myself/disrupt/channel through those around me, the Tibetan high cast
reality as I meditate into it from the dreamscape. Jah LIVE!
The fact is that unless the prophecy is fulfilled, unless karma is
rebalanced, there will be problems..'Westworld' will be destroyed in the
bad karma of it's own poison. Maybe it should be anyway. You have freewill,
you have a choice, now you have knowledge, we have to live in balance with
MOTHER.
KING AMDO
Many bright blessings and respect and love to his Holiness the Dalai Lama.
The dark mother witch wraps herself around us, protects, nurtures and loves us.
Allah Akbar!
OM shiva!

You want something to protest about? If you are not native American (Indian) then you are an imperialist scumbag,leech! If you are not native American, you have no right to complain about ANYTHING until you take your thieving, deadbeat ass back to your own country! You who have nothing better to do than bitch, while you leech off of others do not even deserve to be called human, you are the worms of society! Get out of my country! What goes around comes around. So get your fat lazy ass out while you can. You can't live without your pansy-ass, modernized, white bread world but my people can. My people have kept quite for a long time. You morons will destroy the imperialistic society that you are so ignorant to realize that you are dependent on, and then we will step on you like the cockroaches you are!

To all you protesters I support you, because when you have destroyed the imperialist society that you truthfully speaking thrive on, my people will step on you like the cockroaches you are! If you are not native American (Indian) you have no right to even be here, much less have anything to bitch about, so get your white bread ass out of my country or suffer your whole life, before you suffer eternity in hell.

To Protest: Educate yourself

white american 01.Jun.2004 14:53

Dear Protest. Your claims to the land of Americas is absurd. "Your people" did not originate from this continent, they migrated here many years ago from the continent of Asia. If you want to claim Americas as yours based on the argument that you settled here and made it your home, then all of the immigrants in turn can make a similar argument and claim this continent as theirs using the same analogy, which they have done. And if you really knew the history of this continent then you should have known that recent discoveries have suggested that the Americas were already settled before the "American Indians" came over through the frozen waters of Siberia, and that they ultimately wiped out the original settlers. How do we know that? We know that because a skull that pre-dates the Asian migration by 5,000 years has been discovered that does not present the shape and make-up of the american indigenous peoples.
