World War 3, more proof God is evil: Red Cross & former Army officers say Christian United States loves to torture! U.S. forces violate their own Customs & Laws of War!

“The definition of torture is any technique that causes severe pain or suffering, whether physical or mental, inflicted for a purpose, such as obtaining information or a confession, exerting pressure, intimidation or humiliation.  Waterboarding fits into this category and therefore qualifies as torture.”-Anna Nelson, International Committee of the Red Cross

“There is no way any competent and knowledgeable attorney can say that waterboarding is legal under the Geneva Conventions, the Uniform Code of Military Justice, or the Convention Against Torture.”-Thomas Romig, retired U.S. Army Major General

Abu Ghraib and GITMO are proof the United States military violate its own laws.  Many U.S. civilian police/prison forces violate the military laws as well, in their actions against U.S. citizens.

The following is from the U.S. Army’s Soldier’s Manual of Common Tasks, Skill Level 1, October 1994 edition:

I’ve noticed that newer versions of the U.S. Army’s Soldier’s Manual of Common Tasks, Skill Level 1, no longer cover 181-906-1505. Is this intentional?

The United States and its overlord Israel continually violate these rules, which were agreed to by the United States and the ‘western’ international community at Geneva, Switzerland.

The very first Geneva Convention ‘law’ was created in 1884.

Israel agreed to Geneva Conventions 1 through 4 in 1951 (four years before the United States).  Israel and the U.S. agreed to Geneva Convention Protocol 3 in 2007.

Since Palestine is still not an officially recognized political entity (not considered a ‘country’) it is not bound by any Geneva Convention, or any international laws.   However, in 1982 the now ineffective Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) agreed to Geneva Conventions 1 through 4 and Protocol 1.   Hamas (not affiliated with PLO) came into being in 1987 and has not publicly agreed to any Law of War.

more proof God is evil: Jews angry as Scotland raises Palestinian flag!

Government Evil: More lies from your Commander in Chief, Guantanamo Bay to be expanded! Are they making room for you?

22 March 2013/10 Jumada l-Ula 1434/02 Farvardin 1391/11 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

Remember when Barack Obama said he was going to close Guantanamo Bay torture facility?  Not only did he fail to come through on that promise, but now he’s expanding it!

This comes as remaining prisoners have been on a hunger strike (not reported by main stream U.S. media).  At least 24 prisoners have been protesting their bad treatment and claim that prison guards desecrated the Qur’an.  By the way, did you ever notice the photos of prisoners being taken back to their cells on stretchers after they’ve gone through an interrogation session?

Now Commander in Chief Barack Obama has sent his Southern Command lackeys begging to Congress for more tax money to expand Gitmo.

It’s estimated that renovations and the building of a new prison (to replace the disputed ‘Camp 7’ site) for “special” inmates will cost up to $150 million to $196 million USD.  And this is at a time when Obama ordered the military to cut overall spending.  So he’s willing to spend more on making more room at the Gitmo Inn?

Does this have anything to do with NDAA 2013 and the coming stricter anti-Constitutional gun control laws, which is probably in preparation for the declaration of Martial Law?

It’s Official! Bush Jr & Blair charged with War Crimes, put on trial, for real!!!

“It is very important that this tribunal make a sound judgment against Bush and Blair that will indicate their, in this trial, responsibility for waging a Nuremberg crime against peace, which is along the lines of what the NAZIs did in World War Two”-Francis Boyle, International Law Professor, University of Illinois

After two years of investigations, the Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Commission has officially charged George W. Bush and Tony Blair with war crimes.   Bush and Blair are now being tried, in absentia, by the Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Tribunal, in Malaysia!

Bush and Blair are charged with participating in the formulation of executive orders and directives to exclude the applicability of all international conventions and laws, regarding the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq.  Laws such as: Geneva Conventions, Conventions against Torture, and the Declaration of Human Rights.

One witness told of being held at Guantanamo Bay (GITMO) for six years, suffering torture, then being let go because U.S. officials admitted his detention was a case of mistaken identity!

Official notifications of the war crimes trial were served to known addresses of Bush Jr and Blair, and to the U.S. Embassy and the U.K. High Commission in Kuala Lumpur, on September 19, 2011.

More evil in the U.S. War on Terror: British Man cleared by Bush Jr still detained and tortured at GITMO

“Inhumane treatment is taking place at the hospital among other areas, especially affecting the sick and those who are on (hunger) strike and our deprivation of real treatment, health, diet and appropriate clothing which are not provided to us, nor we are allowed to provide them for ourselves.”-Shaker Aamer, statement obtained by BBC Radio 5 live’s Victoria Derbyshire program

Shaker Aamer, a resident of the United Kingdom, was sent to Guantanamo Bay (GITMO) prison in 2002.  In 2007, U.S. President George W. Bush admitted there was no evidence against Aamer, and cleared him for release.  September 10, 2011, Aamer is still being held at GITMO!!!

Aamer has a wife and two children waiting for him in London.

United Police States of America & Hypocrisy in the War on Terror: Convicted U.S. soldier who led abuse at Abu Ghraib released from prison early

U.S. Army Reserve specialist, Charles Graner, led a six member team at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq.  Maybe you’ve forgotten all those pics of prisoners being terrorized by U.S. soldiers?

Graner was found guilty and sentenced to ten years in prison.  Now he’s being released after only 6 and a half years.  Iraqis have warned the U.S. should be prepared for riots against U.S. troops, at the news of Graner’s early release.

I wonder how all those people still imprisoned at Guantanamo Bay (GITMO) would react to hearing that a convicted U.S. terrorist is being let loose after serving less time than they’ve spent at GITMO, and they still haven’t been charged with anything!!!
