so we have the U.S government admitting torture.

in the next breath, telling us they are going to war against Libya on humanitarian grounds.


Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, and four alleged co-conspirators will be tried in a military commission at Guantanamo Bay, not a civilian court

'Waterboarding'

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed has been held by the US since being captured in Pakistan in 2003.




In a 2007 hearing, he alleged that he had been tortured at Guantanamo Bay. CIA documents confirmed that he had been subjected to the waterboard technique 183 times.

US prosecutors say that Mohammed has confessed to a host of terrorist activities in addition to 9/11.

These include the 2002 nightclub bombing in Bali, Indonesia, the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, the murder of American journalist Daniel Pearl and a failed 2001 attempt to blow up an airliner using a shoe bomb.

The four other suspected terrorists to face military trials at Guantanamo Bay are Walid bin Attash, Ramzi Binalshibh, Ali Abdul Aziz Ali and Mustafa Ahmed al Hawsawi.

agreed Pete, torture might be inhumane, however not as inhumane as blowing up innocent people in the name of any person or cause.

I know this is crap but it's still funny.



An example to British politicians and the judiciary alike. T. B. Bechtel, a City Councillor from Newcastle, Australia, was asked on a local live radio talk show, just what he thought about the allegations of torture of suspected terrorists. His reply prompted his ejection from the studio, but to thunderous
applause from the audience.

HIS STATEMENT:
'If hooking up one raghead terrorist prisoner's testicles to a car
battery to get the truth out of the lying little camelshagger will
save just one Australian life, then I have only three things to say:
"Red is positive, Black is negative and make sure his nuts are wet".
