1. I Love the Troop Supporters here

They are cowards and worse---They are beasts and Hooligans. Their bloodlust shows no bounds

I LOVE THIS QUOTE FORM THE NY TIMES ARTICLE

We routinely treat prisoners in the United States like animals. We brutalize and degrade them, both men and women. And we have a lousy record when it comes to protecting well-behaved, weak and mentally ill prisoners from the predators surrounding them.

A LOT OF TROOPS AND THEIR OFFICERS ARE BEASTS----- AS ARE THE GENERALS AND NEOCONS IN CHARGE

2. Who authorized

flying prisoners around the world?

Who wrote the "legal" defense related to prisoners held by "foreign" countries which the US controls?

What Capt. in the US Army saw Sanchez with those torturing prisoners?

Who authorized this mess (rummy & * )
