Though it is funny of how the theme of 'image' in front of 'truths,' pervades the more deep seated some in power overtly extremely well financed, become. <br /> <br />I address Senator Daniel Inouye, his chief of staff, Patrick Deleon, and how the American Psychological Association changed its Code of Ethics to Employ the Nuremburg Defense for torture in a 28 minute Olelo program I just taped. It is a splice of the substantive parts of what happened with waterboarding, and SERE psychologists and who were responsible for all of what the nation and world saw in those 'prison' photos released, and unreleased. <br /> <br />If not near a TV you can watch it from anywhere real time on the internet.<br /> <br />http://www.olelo.org/index.htm <br /> <br />Just click the icon for ‘FOCUS 49 livestream’ on the right hand side of screen <br /> <br />Roco for Senator (John Roco for U.

The hazing ...First, that was a good article, Joan.<br /><br />The hazing comparison has got to stop. Hazing is voluntary, and it is to the ultimate end of being accepted by people as equally stupid and worthless as the hazed.<br /><br />What was done to Iraqi people and others during this invasion of bush, was nothing less than torture.<br /><br />What is being done now with respect to a swine flu panic is plan B. Troops pulling out, Cheney, bush and all seeing the steady flow of $$$$ diminishing so itʻs time to release, in increments, at numerous global locations...a virus.<br /><br />I would put $$$ on this that behind the scenes, these same criminals have a stake in the flu shots and all $$$ lead right back to them. <br /><br />The strategic and sporadic method of viral releases is a dead giveaway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875069982976812251.post-55333086485112956702009-04-30T15:52:00.000-10:002009-04-30T15:52:00.000-10:00And why is this no surprise...
WASHINGTON (CNN) ...And why is this no surprise...<br /><br /><I>WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The more often Americans go to church, the more likely they are to support the torture of suspected terrorists, according to a new survey.<br /><br />More than half of people who attend services at least once a week -- 54 percent -- said the use of torture against suspected terrorists is "often" or "sometimes" justified. <br /><br />Only 42 percent of people who "seldom or never" go to services agreed, according the analysis released Wednesday by the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life.<br /><br />White evangelical Protestants were the religious group most likely to say torture is often or sometimes justified -- more than six in 10 supported it. <br /><br />People unaffiliated with any religious organization were least likely to back it. Only four in 10 of them did.</I>Full story at http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/04/30/religion.torture/index.htmlDawsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875069982976812251.post-69080792482230014702009-04-29T07:29:00.000-10:002009-04-29T07:29:00.000-10:00Is anybody else seeing absurdity in the "swine flu...Is anybody else seeing absurdity in the "swine flu" panic/propoganda/scare? They are trying to peg every flu virus around the world with being "swine flu" orinating in Mexico and most of them are of a different strain. <br /><br />This looks like an excuse to cut off Mexico and the motives????? <br /><br />Not to mention, there are no reminders with any reports that "most" people don't die "from" the flu. They die from complications "of" having a virus, most notably dehydration which I would think could be common in undeveloped countries and possible among the uneducated (in terms of health) in the developed countries. <br /><br />Meanwhile the pharm companies are making their millions with their anti-viral drugs...blah, blah, blah.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875069982976812251.post-27463340644437440722009-04-29T00:10:00.000-10:002009-04-29T00:10:00.000-10:00As usual Friedman says it best, "So President Obam...As usual Friedman says it best, "So President Obama’s compromise is the best we can forge right now: We have to enjoin those who confront Al Qaeda types every day on the frontlines to act in ways that respect who we are, but also to never forget who they are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875069982976812251.post-69341408527361784722009-04-27T12:52:00.000-10:002009-04-27T12:52:00.000-10:00"who liken the torture Americans dished out to col..."who liken the torture Americans dished out to college fraternity hazing"<br /><br />-- that was me. and it is largely true (of course those frats get sued into oblivion all the time too, often for such things)<br /><br /><br />"CIA never got around to assessing whether its harsh interrogation methods even worked,"<br /><br />-- the cia/fbi rift on this is interesting. this one middle eastern guy w/ the fbi seemed to say ~ "ya, we got good info, but we/i was getting just as good info w/o "torturing"'<br /><br /><br />but good important stories. nice job<br /><br />and no new news on that fish kill thing it seemsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
