[Marxism] Rumsfeld Admits Torture



Rumsfeld Openly Admits Guantanamo Torture
Indictments won't stop Neo-Cons, closing Gitmo will be the first step

Paul Joseph Watson | November 3 2005

When Donald Rumsfeld was asked about the force feeding of detainees at
Guantanamo Bay recently, a brutal practice that involves inserting tubes as
wide as fingers directly through stomachs and nostrils without any
anesthetic as prisoners convulse and vomit blood, Rummy replied, "I'm not a
doctor."

Rumsfeld didn't deny that this torture was taking place, he simply claimed
ignorance of the exact nature of the procedure.

Rumsfeld was defending his decision to bar a UN investigation of Guantanamo
Bay.

On the surface, the UN investigating any torture camp is like Ted Bundy
being invited to case Ed Gein's house. There isn't going to be an impartial
appraisal of the evidence.

However, despite the United Nations being a corrupt client of the US
government, any organization has good people in its ranks. Potential
whistleblowers are not something the Bush regime wants more of and the veto
of the inquiry was partly to prevent more mud from being thrown.

The blockage of the investigation is just another example of a government
that wants to know everything about your life, wants your privacy to be
totally transparent, but is getting more secretive all the time in covering
up its own criminal activities.

General Janis Karpinsky's media pilgrimage, in which she directly points the
finger at Rumsfeld for being the architect of the torture program, has only
made waves in the alternative media and the establishment mouthpieces dare
not touch it. Where are the indictments? Where are the criminal proceedings
against Rumsfeld?
