Iraq officials spend our tax money on lavish life styles and secret swiss bank accounts

The Iraqi foriegn minister went on CNN yesterday to make excuses. I can understand why senior Iraqi officials are happy to sit on their treasure -- along with their asses -- and let US taxpayers cover their bills, pay their salaries, and risk our soldiers' lives, but why in the world would Republicans stand for it? Just which country do John McCain and his conservative pals think they're working for exactly? If Baghdad Republicans want to play US taxpayers for dopes and hand over our money to pad the Swiss bank accounts of Iraqi fat cats, fine, reregister as a foriegn lobby or 527, or whatever the fuck they want. But please, let's dispense with the laughable notion that the Iraq Wing of the GOP is an American political party working with American interests in mind.

Countdown’s Bushed!: Shameful Silence Edition


WMP
Counting down the scandals…
First up is an update on the Liberty 7 “terror” trial. Remember these guys? They were a bunch of paintballers in Florida who the government said threatened to blow up the Sears Tower in Chicago. Well, surprise, surprise, after two trials, we have not one conviction but a second hung jury, with one of the jurors weighing in on a third trial:
“They are wasting time and money…unless they change the evidence or approach they might get another hung jury.”
​
But never fear, waste is nothing in the pursuit of the “War on Terror,” as U.S. Assistant Attorney Richard Gregorie says that the Feds will seek a third trial.
And then we have the story Steve brought you yesterday, that is Evidence #2,846 that the country wants us as dumbed down as possible and doesn’t mind if kids get pregnant to do that. At the news (which is not new–just a confirmation of what we’ve known for decades) that the studies show abstinence-only sex education program the federal government has been pouring money into is not working. But don’t tell that to Rep. John Duncan (R-TN), who found trusting a scientific study by academics with those high-falutin’ degrees “elitist.”
And finally, the sad story recounted by Dana Milbank at the Washington Post. When Lt. Col. Billy Hall lost his life in Iraq, his grieving family gave permission for the media to cover his funeral at Arlington Cemetary. But the Pentagon had other ideas and cordoned off the media so that they could get no usable audio andonly a few, distant photos with yellow ropes blocking the face of his loved ones.

Deserting the Troops

A RAND study came out recently that had just horrifying statistics: 300,000 U.S. veterans are suffering serious mental health issues, including clinical depression and PTSD. CBS News revealed the results of an investigation on Wednesday that showed suicide is epidemic, with 2,200 among active-duty service since the invasion. But what Dr. Ira Katz, the VA’s head of mental health, didn’t reveal to CBS is that there are an average of 1,000 suicide attempts per month, an unthinkably high number. VetVoice is asking for your support in asking for Katz’s resignation. Paul Rieckhoff, veterans advocate and founder of the IAVA, joins Keith Olbermann to discuss:
Olbermann: More shocking than that misrepresentation or whatever you want to call it, there are other facts that go hand in glove with this. 300,000 Iraq and Afghanistan vets either with clinical depression of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. The suicide rate of among veterans is anywhere between three and seven times higher than the rest of the country and this number of suicide attempts at a 1000 per month. Why are the numbers so terrifyingly high?
Rieckhoff: I would say it boils down because of the fact our country is not ready to receive these people, Keith. We’ve sent 1.7 million people to war in Iraq and Afghanistan since 9/11. Hundreds of thousands of them are coming home with serious mental health problems. This Rand study that came out last week verifies it. We’re passed the point of canaries in the coalmine. Everybody knows there are serious mental health issues across the veterans’ population. And we’re not taking care of them. They’re backlogged at the VA, the average claim takes 183 days and it’s not a pro-active system.

An Iraqi member of parliament has revealed that the US forces have used forbidden weapons against Iraqi civilians in Baghdad's Sadr City.

So the war crimes again a people that never did this country any harm goes on ... and it's all to set them free :roll:

Check out this op-ed piece on Iran ... the illegitimate bush regime is DEFINITELY planning to go to war with Iran ... even though Iran has broken no laws ... unlike the US ...

Petraeus promotion an ominous sign of possible war with Iran

It is unwise for Iran to disregard the facts ...

Iran says Iraq situation makes U.S. attack unlikely"We think it would be unlikely the Americans would take the decision to get themselves into a new fiasco, the consequences of which they themselves have acknowledged would be painful for the region and the world," spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini said.

Memo to Iranian spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini: what you say would be the intelligent outcome if we were dealing with rational, logical policy makers in the US and Israeli governments. The critical problem, sir, is that we are not dealing with logical, rational people in both governments.
Logical and rational people would never have attacked Iraq and Afghanistan, not would they have ever laughed General Shinseki out of the room when he told them it would take several hundred thousand to begin to do the job adequately in Iraq.
I am sure that thinking Iranians are watching just as nervously as are thinking Americans here as the US media "ramps up" to desperately try to "sell" an attack on Iran as a way to take public attention off the tragedies of the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan.
Just because a military action against Iran is insane, unfortunately, is no reason to bet that this administration won't do it. MR



I agree ... the illegitimate members of the bush regime are insane ... Iran in for a big surprise in the fall ... if not sooner ...:-|



Waterboarding is torture - I did it myself, says US advisor
In a further embarrassment for Mr Bush yesterday, Malcolm Nance, an advisor on terrorism to the US departments of Homeland Security, Special Operations and Intelligence, publicly denounced the practice. He revealed that waterboarding is used in training at the US Navy's Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape School in San Diego, and claimed to have witnessed and supervised "hundreds" of waterboarding exercises. Although these last only a few minutes and take place under medical supervision, he concluded that "waterboarding is a torture technique - period".

.... and torture is a war crime ... Hence the title and point of this thread ... further documentation of the war crimes being committed by these war criminals in the WH.

Check this ... trying to make what is illegal ... legal ...

Justice Department letters say interrogation rules may not bind U.S.The US Government cannot declare something to be legal that is considered illegal in other countries and under international law. Doing so is what defines a "Rogue State." MR

Nuff said ... :neutral:

Welcome to the Orwellian State GrowRebel. Now here's how to fix it: Stop the hate mongering. It is doing nothing but sapping your energy. Use your energy instead to contact every one of your government representatives ... and voice your disgust at what's happening. If they (Republicans) try to get a bill passed to pay for a bridge to nowhere, call them up and protest. If they (the Democrats) want to pass a federal hate crime bill, which is nothing more than a law against thought, call them up and protest. If they want to give amnesty to 12 millions law breakers, call them up and protest. Millions, upon millions of people should be doing this at this point. I mean, the president's approval rating is around 20%. Congress' approval rating is around 12%. That means that there a a lot of disenfranchised people in this country who are ready for a major change of the Old Guard. They got the message on the amnesty bill ... and they will get the message on all the rest of the bull shit too. Call and protest. Protest via Email. If enough of us to that ... they WILL listen, or get voted out of office. If we have to vote out the next five congresses, so be it. Just stop with all the hate and start using your head. Not dissing you here at all, just trying to show you what an outside observer sees.

Bullshit ... Vi doesn't know what I do ... I HAVE written and called my reps ... so once again he's full of shit ... when they were confirming war criminals to higher offices people called in ... in droves ... yet they did as the corporation wanted and ignored the will of the people ... yet STILL I write ... and does Vi write? .... you have already admitted you don't write ... so don't assume since you don't write I don't either ... :roll: and what you call "bitching" I call pointing out crimes being committed by this illegitimate regime that seem to be ignore by people with your mentality ...
... so called it what you like ... but what it IS ... is exposing the WAR CRIMES ... and to ignore them is a crime in itself ... :spew:You and the war criminals want to keep it in the dark ... but I and people like me will always be around to bring it to the LIGHT.:hump:

Knowledge is power ... and the more that know about these crimes being committed the better the chances of getting things done ... :neutral:

Countdown’s Bushed!: Not Thinking It Through Edition

First up in our ongoing scandal rotation is the shameful way that soldiers and returning vets have not had their medical needs met by the Bush administration. The RAND group recently testified before Congress of yet another reason that may pique the interests of the Corporatists in office: providing medical treatment earlier significantly cuts the long term costs, not to mention the collateral costs of drug use, marital problems, unemployment and suicide.
So now will you take care of the wounded? There’s profit in it.
​
And then there is the ultimate card of the fear-mongering set: the Global War on Terror™. Unfortunately, for all their talk of wanting to combat terrorism, studies released this week have found that incidents of terrorism have remained unchanged from last year, although anti-American sentiment amongst terrorist safe havens in Somalia, Algeria, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Chad, Mali, and Yemen increases, as does al Qaeda’s ability to plan another attack on us, thanks to their undisturbed presence in Pakistan. Heckuva job, Bushie.
And finally, the pathetic No Fly List. It turns out that even the blatantly partisan Washington Times finds the No Fly List worthy of ridicule, not just because of the 9,000 false positives that occur daily, but especially with the news that several flights have gone out without the promised Federal Air Marshalls because these same FAMs have found their names (along with everyone who goes by Mohammed or Ali) on the list and have been refused entry onto the planes they’ve been charged to protect.




Those of you that check out my thread knows that I put up a study that showed fauxnews views were highly misinformed ... (stupid) ...

His sharp tongued conclusion: "Hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars were unnecessarily spent, and worse yet, too many of our most precious military resource, our American soldiers, were unnecessarily wounded, maimed, and killed as a result. In my mind, this action by the Bush administration amounts to gross incompetence and dereliction of duty."

Not if Bush's duty was to the stock portfolios of the Vice President and those members of Congress invested in defense contractors. MR

here's another report on this matter ...

Rumours of a link between the US first family and the Nazi war machine have circulated for decades. Now the Guardian can reveal how repercussions of events that culminated in action under the Trading with the Enemy Act are still being felt by today's president

More reports of the war crimes being committed by theillegitimate bush regime ...

http://www.antiwar.com/glantz/?articleid=12855[URL="http://www.antiwar.com/glantz/?articleid=12855"]Iraq Veterans Describe Atrocities to Lawmakers [/url]
Antiwar veterans of the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan took their case to Capitol Hill Thursday, baring their souls with stories of killings of innocent civilians, torture and wrongful detentions. The veterans spoke about extremely lax rules of engagement handed down by commanding officers, which they said virtually guaranteed atrocities would be committed, and which in turn created a violent backlash among Iraqi people and a continued cycle of violence.

Iraqis and Afghanis do not hate us "because we are free"; they hate us because of what we have done to their countries and their families.

Ahem to that ... only the stupid believe otherwise ...

The Afghanis do not hate us because we are free: they hate us for what they have done to their families, their friends, and their country. MR
