“The president wants to know who the f**k authorized this release to the committees,” Panetta recalled then-White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel saying at a Situation Room meeting not long after the arrangement was made. “I have a president with his hair on fire, and I want to know what the f**k you did to f**k this up so bad!”

Hey everybody,remember how you felt on the morning of Sept. 12th ,2001 ? Didn't you just hope and pray that the CIA would be understanding and loving to the ones responsible for the attack and murder of over 3,000 innocent men ,women and children ?
In 2007, the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) published a report titled “Off the Record: US Responsibility for Enforced Disappearances in the ‘War on Terror.’ ”
It discussed ghost detainees held in secret black sites. It revealed how America lawlessly uses “proxy detention.”
It demonstrates that “far from targeting the ‘worst of the worst,’ the system sweeps up low-level detainees and even involves the detention of the wives and children of the ‘disappeared.’ ”
Doing so violates core rule of law principles. CCR documented torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment. Obama continues the worst of Bush administration policies.
Doing so constitutes the worst kind of cruel, inhumane and degrading treatment. Nothing too brutal is out of bounds. Virtually everything is OK.
Washington operates global black sites. It does so separately or jointly with host countries. It transfers some detainees to foreign-controlled facilities.
Numerous individuals from many countries are targeted. Many were sold for bounty. Some were held because of mistaken identity. The great majority of victims committed no crimes.
Guilt or innocence doesn’t matter. Once abducted, all rights are lost. Boys young as seven were abducted.
