American Scofflaw
President George W. Bush admits for the first time in his new memoir that he personally approved the use of waterboardingWhy is this man not standing before the International Court at the Hague, accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity?!?
Due to the utterly filthy depth of complicity, between the White House, Congress, the Pentagon, and State Department, and the Court System, coupled with an American people too cowed to think straight, everyone complicit in this process was so thoroughly tainted to the point that they did not want to criticize what were essentially immoral, and more importantly, illegal acts under American law.
So what did the White House do? Courtesy of their attorneys, who behaved as though they had doctorates in Orwellian doublespeak, tortured language, so that prisoners of war were now "enemy combatants", and torture became "enhanced interrogation"
We all know that torture does not bring the truth; it only gets the tortured individual to say whatever his torturer wants them to say to get the torture to stop.
