New Calls For Bush War Criminals To Face Justice

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


RINF Alternative News

A UN investigator has requested that the United States reveal its findings on the CIA’s Bush-era programme of the rendition and secret detention of terrorism suspects, which has the potential to lead to high level officials being prosecuted for crimes against humanity.

A US Senate select committee on intelligence investigated the CIA’s secret detention and interrogation programme, examining use of torture methods including “waterboarding”.

The panel is believed to have unrestricted access to classified information and completed its review in December 2011.

Ben Emmerson, UN special rapporteur on the promotion and protection of human rights, has urged the Senate to “ publish without delay, and to the fullest extent possible”. He also airs concern over the fact that there have been no prosecutions despite the “gross or systematic” violation of human rights. He said:

“Despite this clear repudiation of the unlawful actions carried out by the Bush-era CIA, many of the facts remain classified, and no public official has so far been brought to justice in the United States.”

The Department of Justice has so far protected the Bush era war criminals by refusing to prosecute any official “who acted in good faith and within the scope of legal guidance given by its Office of Legal Counsel”, according to US Attorney General Eric Holder.

Emmerson regards this as:

“Perpetuating impunity for the public officials implicated in these crimes.

“Any public officials who may have authorised or helped in setting up such facilities should be held accountable.”

He also draws attention to the use of clandestine sites where suspects were taken for detention without any extradition procedures, charges laid or access to a lawyer:

“There is now credible evidence to show that CIA ‘black sites’ were located on the territory of Lithuania, Morocco, Poland, Romania and Thailand, and that the officials of at least 49 other States allowed their airspace or airports to be used for rendition flights,”

        jeb bush has been officially implicated in the false flag 9/11 mass murder and wants to run for president in 2016, will the madness ever stop. http://www.whodidit.org/cocon.html Are you ready to defend your country? Yet? The American citizens that haven’t awakened are in for a very rude awakening to an experience that will shock their conscience to their very core with an epiphany that your homeland has been in fact conquered by criminal Rico de-industrialized sabotage. And that we paid for it all with our own debt raped money. Everything the communist conquerors are doing right now is only about taking the American’s guns to usher in the u.n communist new world order. Nothing else, that’s what’s going on. communist china and russia are in the new world order along with obama in their private rooms making plans together to conquer all land and people of the world. They start wars on purpose to get people killed as fodder to take your property and reduce populations. The war is against us the American’s that love freedom and honesty. And any other country that doesn’t Heil hitler to the one world communist u.n will meet the same peril. Do you, as an American understand what is taking place in your own country? You’re in emanate peril of tyranny controlled incarceration or death which is preferred by the u.n. armies coming here after the revolution uprising and they would love nothing more then to kill a snot nosed American pussy that let 1000 foreign infiltrators rule them directly in their face blatantly circumvent every single U.S. Constitutional law. The illegitimate federal government infiltrators are controlled by world banker money that placed (selected) and bought our U.S. government. The u.n. communist and nato control forces are their enforcers and this is an unprecedented place in time and history. We need to get together (unite now) right now and arrest these infiltrators or were done. So lets pull our heads out of our asses, turn off the complicit propaganda TV news accomplice enemy liars and do this thing right now to save American lives. God bless you. Check with your patriot Sheriff’s right now to see how you can help or more importantly which side they’re on because at this moment you’re either with us or you’re with the traitors. I’ve been ready to defend my country.

      Don’t forget about Tony Blair, responsible for 500,000 deaths in Iraq. He earns his dirty money these days by helping promote the petro-states of Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan.

      If you call Bush war criminals, you are either a foreigner, or delusional. You see Bush as a war criminal thru your distorted, foreigner viewpoint. Your sense of reality may be limited for numerous reasons, for example an mental illness or substance abuse.

      • arpes

        you are either joking in poor taste… or you have no concept of history and you continue to drink the cool aid

      • James Smith

        Or it could be that you’re just a stupid foolish old man with nothing better to do than be a blatant in our face traitor for some attentions lonely for a conversation or maybe are you just a jack booted gutless coward lick their boots butt kissing punk.
