Reuters AlertNet - Bush puts CIA prisons under Geneva Conventions

Senior administration officials declined to say what interrogation techniques would be allowed under the new order, arguing that the disclosure would enable al Qaeda and other militant groups to train members to resist the techniques.

The order prohibits acts including murder, torture, cruel or inhuman treatment, mutilation or maiming, intentional serious bodily injury, rape, sexual assault or abuse, biological experiments and the taking of hostages.


I BELIEVE, AMERICA HAS TO COMPLY WITH GENEVA CONVENTION WITHOUT EXCEPTIONS! EITHER BUSH CONTINUE TO FOLLOW HIS CRIMINAL INSTINCT OR HE WILL DROP TORTURE ALL TOGETHER WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ALQAIDA! I DON'T BELIEVE HE CAME CLEAN YET.

Broken Spring?       : Information Clearing House

Broken Spring?       : Information Clearing House This is a sequel to my June 2011 article, ‘After the spring’, on the upheavals in the Arab world. It is an article that has been painful to write, because it brings bad tidings and offers a pessimistic analysis of the upheavals, at least in the short term, in a number of Arab countries. The outcomes and potential outcomes of these uprisings have also acquired new, very significant dimensions. These include a complex entanglement with the accelerated preparations for a possible attack on Iran, and a poisonous, sectarian aspect that could have the consequence of ripping Syria and the Middle East apart.
