Marine says he was ordered to delete Iraq photos

By Dazeylin 0 Comments

Categories: Detainee

The incident took place in November 2005

A US marine lied to cover up a squad’s killings of 24 civilians in Iraq’s city of Haditha in 2005, a US prosecutor has said at the officer’s court martial.

The prosecutor’s comments came during opening statements in the trial of Lt Andrew Grayson in California.

Lt Grayson is charged with obstructing justice and making false statements in connection with the case. He rejects the allegations.

He is the first of three defendants to go on trial.

Four marines were initially charged with killing of the 24 unarmed Iraqi civilians, including women and children, in Haditha. Another four were charged with failing to investigate the deaths.

But five of the marines have now had charges dismissed.

Bush, Cheney tossed America in the toilet while they pursued their own perverse agendas

“The USA must close Guantanamo detention camp and secret detention centres, prosecute the detainees under fair trial standards or release them, and unequivocally reject the use of torture and ill-treatment.” — Amnesty International’s Report 2008: State of the World’s Human Rights.

Has anyone forgotten that it was just 10 years ago that the holier than thou among our politicians were impeaching a president for lying about girlfriends during a time of budget surpluses and relative international calm?How did we go from that overreaction to allowing George Bush and Dick Cheney to serve out their terms while ruining America’s reputation in the world and in the process ravaging many innocent lives? Absolute power, they say, corrupts absolutely. No better way to sum up this destructive duo who led thousands of American service personnel to their deaths in a perverse quest for revenge and personal profit in Iraq, while there still was a war to be won in Afghanistan.

The cloak of patriotism trumped all, while true patriots were silenced.

Now a new book from a Bush insider says the administration was far more interested in propaganda than leveling with Americans about the Iraq war. Surprised? The Nixon administration ended with lots of folks going to jail. How can the Bush administration end any other way? Because the entire justice system has become politicized and the politicians who might do something about it are more interested in the next election rather than doing their jobs.

We once — despite our personal immoralities — held the moral high ground. As recently as Sept. 12, 2001. But it always matters what you do once it’s your turn to respond to injustice.

Now we are lumped with China and Myanmar among the world’s human rights abusers. And where in the past this association may have been purely political, now it is impurely factual.

They say empires end without grace. Welcome to 2008 in America.

After years spent here, one prisoner pins his hope on a single phone call from the outside world — if it ever comes.

Editor’s note: Read Salon’s full coverage of U.S. judicial proceedings at Guantánamo Bay.

By Carol Chodroff

GUANTANAMO BAY, Cuba — It wasn’t easy getting to court last week to observe the military hearing for Ibrahim al-Qosi, a 47-year-old Sudanese national and an alleged driver and bodyguard for Osama bin Laden, whom the U.S. government wants to put on trial at Guantánamo Bay. Besides having to pass through three metal detectors, I was searched by several armed guards and asked to lift up my blouse before I was granted access to the military commission building where a new form of justice, Guantánamo-style, is being tested. A trip to the porta-potty required accompaniment by a military escort, who stood outside with four military police until I re-emerged.

Binyam Mohamed’s letter from Guantánamo to Gordon Brown

Categories: Andy Worthington and Detainee Abuse

By Andy Worthington

As the US administration prepares to charge British resident Binyam Mohamed in a Military Commission at Guantánamo, Andy Worthington reports on his last-minute appeal to Prime Minster Gordon Brown to intervene on his behalf.

Today the Independent runs a front-page story, “The Last Briton in Guantánamo faces death penalty,” focusing on the plight of British resident Binyam Mohamed. Seized in Pakistan in April 2002, Binyam was subsequently rendered to Morocco, where proxy torturers, working on behalf of the Americans, tortured him for 18 months, in interrogation sessions that included regularly cutting his penis with a razor blade. He was then transferred to the “Dark Prison,” a secret CIA prison near Kabul, modelled on a medieval torture dungeon, but with the addition of ear-splitting music and noise, which was blasted into the cells for 24 hours a day, and finally arrived in Guantánamo in September 2004.

Clive Stafford Smith: Why has the Government forsaken Binyam Mohamed?

By Dazeylin 0 Comments

Categories: Detainee

It seems likely that the US military will soon seek to prosecute Binyam Mohamed in a military tribunal that fails to meet internationally recognised legal standards.

British officials have condemned the tribunals, and the former lord justice Steyn referred to them as “kangaroo courts”. The British Government has strongly opposed Mr Mohamed being put on trial in such an unfair process, and has demanded that he be returned home to London.

This is admirable. Why, then, does the Government refuse to provide Mr Mohamed with assistance in proving his claim that he is innocent, and that he was tortured? Some magnet seems to have dragged the moral compass of this government radically off course.

Former Guantánamo prisoner asks U.S. to review its founding ideals

First published February 6, 2008 by CSMonitor

Adel Hassan Hamad, who is suing the US government, claims that American values of freedom and democracy have been shaken.

Adel Hassan Hamad’s lawyers and actor Martin Sheen collaborated on this YouTube appeal to the US government to return Mr. Hamad to his family. He has since been released.

Khartoum, Sudan - It took US Army interrogators at Guantánamo Bay five years to reach the conclusion that Adel Hassan Hamad was exactly who he claimed to be: a hospital administrator in Pakistan. On Dec. 11, 2007, they put him back on a military cargo plane, hooded and handcuffed, and sent him back to his home to Sudan.

Reporter Scott Baldauf discusses

his conversation with two Sudanese

men who were detained by the US

at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

Now Mr. Hamad says he’ll sue the US government for compensation for those lost years – years where his family became impoverished and one daughter became sick and died. But he says it’s not just about the money. He wants the US to return to what it used to be, a beacon of freedom.

“We don’t want animosity, we just want to respect America again,” says Hamad, speaking in English phrases he learned while in prison. “The American conscience and the American people need to return to the great concepts established by the Founding Fathers, of freedom, democracy, equality, and justice. All these values and even the justice system are being shaken, played with.”

‘Soldiers around you, kicking, spitting, screaming, swearing’

By Dazeylin 0 Comments

by Nicky Woolf

Moazzam Begg spent two years of his life imprisoned without charge by the US military. He speaks to Nicky Woolf about life as a detainee of the war on terror

Moazzam Begg spoke at York

“I opened the door to several people. None of them were identified. None of them asked who I was. They put a gun to my head, pushed me to the forecourt of my house, tied my hands behind my back, tied my legs, put a hood over my head and carried me to their car.”

There is a pause, and Moazzam Begg’s face darkens as he recalls the night in January 2002 when he was “picked up” from his home in Pakistan by the US military and taken to a military holding site. He was then moved to a former Soviet base at Bagram used to house terror suspects designated “Enemy Combatants” in the War on Terror.

After a year at Bagram, he was transported to the high-security facility at Guantanamo Bay, where he spent two more years. He was released and returned to Britain in January 2005. No charges were ever brought against him, and he never faced trial.

I ask him what first went through his head when he opened the door to the soldiers. “Surprise. Shock,” he tells me. “Everything happened so fast. I didn’t say a word, I didn’t actually say one word.” He blinks slowly, then corrects himself: “I saw them going towards the room where my wife and kids were, and I said ‘don’t go in there.’ That’s when they put the hood over my head. I was completely stunned. I didn’t know what to say at all. They didn’t say anything to me either. They just came in, pushed me to the forecourt, put a gun to my head. I saw tasers crackling in the background. I didn’t know who they were… It is extremely frightening when you’re on your knees, hands behind your back, hood over your head. The first thought that comes into your mind is, someone’s going to blow me away.”

Afghanistan: The Brutal and Unnecessary War the Media Aren’t Telling You About

First Posted on February 26, 2008

They say journalists provide the first draft of history. With the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan, that draft led to an almost universal consensus, at least among Americans, that the attack was a justifiable act of self-defense. The Afghanistan action is commonly viewed as a “clean” conflict as well — a war prosecuted with minimal loss of life, and one that didn’t bring the kind of international opprobrium onto the United States that the invasion of Iraq would lead to a year later.

Those views are also held by many Americans who are critical of the excesses of the Bush administration’s “War on Terror.” But there’s a disconnect there. Everything that followed — secret detentions, torture, the invasion of Iraq, the assault on domestic dissent — flowed inevitably from the failure to challenge Bush’s claim that an act of terror required a military response. The United States has a rich history of abandoning its purported liberal values during times of war, and it was our acceptance of Bush’s war narrative that led to the abuses that have shattered America’s moral standing before the world.

I hear tell they did this stuff in Nazi Germany… now it’s the US and the UK … and everyone else who got sucked into it by the Bush administration….

Mr Shaffi fears his research will place him in conflict with anti-terror laws

A Muslim lecturer who is carrying out online research is so afraid he will stray onto an extremist website that he fears it will bring police to his door.

Maroof Shaffi, who teaches at Bradford College, said the heightened security situation and anti-terror laws were leaving many Muslims in fear of arrest.

Mr Shaffi told the BBC that during his research many books he was ordering had the word “Jihad” in the title.

Police said extremist literature alone was not enough to send people to jail.

West Yorkshire Police said “a number of factors” had to be in place for anyone to become of interest to the police.

Guantanamo Bay: A global rebuke

By Dazeylin 0 Comments

Categories: war crimes

SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER EDITORIAL BOARD

Most Americans have had their fill of hearing awful truths about their government. But that doesn’t mean we get to ignore the facts. Among those things we may be sick of hearing about is our detention center in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The way our government has treated detainees since we embarked on this “war on terror” constitutes nothing short of creating its own form of terrorism and unleashing it upon an entire population.

The latest Amnesty International report slams the U.S. (among other countries) for failing to uphold human rights standards. “With breathtaking legal obfuscation, the U.S. administration has continued its efforts to weaken the absolute prohibition against torture and other ill treatment,” reads the report. “The U.S. president authorized the CIA to continue secret detention and interrogation, although they amount to the international crime of enforced disappearance. Hundreds of prisoners in Guantanamo and Bagram, and thousands in Iraq, continued to be detained without charge or trial, many for more than six years.” Guantanamo cells are so grim that the group is taking a replica of one on a show-and-tell tour, torturers not included, to show us what our tax dollars are paying for.

This country’s credibility is horribly, possibly irreparably, damaged.

Our standards for our own conduct are alarmingly low. Simply condemning the report, as the U.S. has done (China did the same, so we’re in great company), hardly addresses the question: When are we going to close the prison we never should have opened in the first place?

Binyam Mohamed came to the UK as an asylum seeker in 1994

A British resident facing trial for terror offences at Guantanamo Bay has written to Prime Minister Gordon Brown to plead for help in freeing him.

Binyam Mohamed says he is considering suicide, the Independent reports.

He denies involvement with terrorism and writes that any evidence against him has been extracted through torture during six years’ detention by the US.

The 29-year-old, from west London, is the last Guantanamo detainee with automatic right to British residency.

Downing Street has declined to comment on the letter.

Former Gitmo prosecutor claims retaliation

By Dazeylin 0 Comments

Categories: Military Tribunal and Salim Hamdan

WASHINGTON (CNN) — The former chief prosecutor of military commissions at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, said Thursday that he was denied a service medal for criticizing the trial process.

Col. Morris Davis says the military is retaliating against him for criticizing Brig. Gen. Thomas Hartmann, above.

Last week, Air Force Col. Morris Davis said he was notified that he was denied the Defense Meritorious Service Medal, a relatively common decoration issued for achievement in a non-combat assignment.

Davis quit his post in October, declaring that the prosecutions of several suspected terrorists had become “deeply politicized.”

He was particularly critical of Brig. Gen. Thomas Hartmann, legal adviser to the military commissions.

The former prosecutor said this month that Hartmann failed to maintain a neutral position in the case of Salim Ahmed Hamdan, Osama bin Laden’s former driver.

For most of 2008, the media’s interest in Guantánamo has focused not on the majority of the 273 prisoners who are still held there without charge or trial and largely unknown to the outside world, but on the 13 who have been plucked from the grinding obscurity of indefinite detention to face trial by Military Commission, an innovation unrelated to either the U.S. courts or the U.S. military’s own judicial processes that was conceived in November 2001 by Vice President Dick Cheney and his close advisers.

The Sadistic Side of Bush’s War on Terror

By DAVID ROSEN

The “New York Times’” recently revealed the existence of a little-known executive order issued by President Bush in the summer of ’07 that permitted U.S. intelligence operatives to circumvent restrictions on the use of humiliating and degrading interrogation techniques.

Bush’s order permitted U.S. intelligence operatives to effectively side-step the legal and moral restrictions imposed by the Supreme Court and Congress (and formally approved by Bush) as well as Common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions.

[JURIST] An Afghan detainee at Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive] Wednesday moved to have all charges against him dismissed, alleging that he has been tortured in US custody. In a motion filed by his military defense lawyer, Mohammed Jawad [DOD materials; JURIST news archive] said that he has been subjected to abusive treatment, including the so-called “frequent-flier program,” in which certain inmates are moved between cells at two to four hour intervals in an attempt to cause physical stress through sleep deprivation. AP has more.

Jawad was charged [charge sheet, PDF; JURIST report] in February with attempted murder and intentionally causing serious bodily injury in a December 2002 grenade attack in Kabul that injured two US soldiers and an Afghan translator. In March, Jawad appeared at a pretrial hearing before a military commission, alleging that he had been mistreated while in custody, and asked to boycott his trial [JURIST report]. Jawad was the fourth Guantanamo detainee to be formally charged with war crimes under the 2006 Military Commissions Act [PDF text].

To my precious supporters,

I am left with few words to express my gratitude for your many heartfelt messages of unity which have given me hope for a nation and a people that was all but lost in my once bitter heart.

I have drawn so much strength this past week from the thousands of you who’ve chosen to stand by me, in these, the most trying times of my young life.

When I first received my call up last February, my soul collapsed under the weight of sorrow I felt for my self, my country, the Iraqi people and the world. I felt alone and abandoned, and I saw no chance to make things right.

Defence alleges Gitmo detainee was victim of sleep-disruption tactic; seeks dismissal

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — An Afghan detainee at Guantanamo Bay was the alleged victim of an abusive tactic meant to decrease his resistance to interrogation, a Pentagon-appointed defence attorney said Wednesday in a motion to dismiss charges.

Air Force Maj. David Frakt filed the motion to dismiss war-crime charges against Mohammed Jawad because he was allegedly subjected to a sleep-disruption technique that involved round-the-clock cell transfers at the isolated U.S. detention center in Cuba.

Frakt alleged that Jawad underwent the so-called “frequent-flyer program“ at the U.S. base a total of 112 times during a two-week period in May 2004. Jawad, a 23-year-old accused of a grenade attack that wounded two U.S. soldiers, was about 19 at the time.

Tactics Continued Against Detainees

By Carrie Johnson and Josh White

Complaints by FBI agents about abusive interrogation tactics at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and other U.S. military sites reached the National Security Council but prompted no effort to curb questioning that the agents considered ineffective and possibly illegal, according to an internal audit released yesterday.

Reports that Guantanamo detainees were being subjected to extreme temperatures, religious abuses and nude interrogation were conveyed at White House meetings of senior officials in 2003, yet these questionable tactics remained in use, a lengthy report by the Justice Department’s inspector general concluded.

American Psychological Association Supports Psychologist Engagement in Bush Regime Interrogations

by Stephen Soldz

Since 2005, the American Psychological Association (APA) has steadfastly asserted that psychologists participating in detainee interrogations protects detainees by helping to keep these interrogations “safe, legal, ethical, and effective.” Last week, the APA’s Ethics Director Stephen Behnke seized upon newly released portions of an official investigation of US detainee abuse, called the Church Report, as an opportunity to reinvigorate support for the APA policy of psychologist participation in interrogations.

In a letter to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), The APA’s Dr. Behnke stated:

In carefully reviewing the documents, we note that according to the information obtained by the ACLU, psychologists supporting interrogations ‘emphasized their separation from detainee medical care,’ and that a psychologist who suspected abuse ‘recommended the interrogation not proceed and brought in medical personnel to evaluate the detainee.’ According to these documents, APA’s policy of engagement served the intended purpose: to stop interrogations that cross the bounds of ethical propriety.

Vancouver MP Dawn Black introduces bill to outlaw torture

Hey at least these guys have the class to cop to it and do something about it - unlike the good ol’ US of A…

By Travis Lupick

Today (May 27) in the House of Commons, NDP defence critic Dawn Black (New Westminster-Coquitlam) introduced a bill to outlaw torture.

If approved by a majority in the House, Black’s bill would make it a criminal offence to transfer prisoners to authorities when the detainees face a risk of torture. The bill would also make it illegal for Canadian authorities to use information obtained during torture, according to an NDP media release.

Speaking from Ottawa shortly after introducing the bill, Black told the Straight that she saw no reason why Canada’s other opposition parties would not support the legislation.

Black said that the bill was drafted with the help of the B.C. Civil Liberties Association, and inspired by the Afghan-detainee scandal.

Almost seven years after 9/11, Guantanamo Bay remains a shameful symbol of the War on Terror. The United States continues to argue that the Constitution has no jurisdiction outside U. S. borders, thereby violating international and national law. Guantanamo Bay has since housed hundreds of men accused of being linked to terrorism, who have been continually mistreated and denied their rights.

President George W. Bush has repeatedly assured Americans that the prisoners being held at Guantanamo Bay are “the worst of the worst.” Last week, one of these men, Sami Al-Hajj, was released after spending more than seven years in U. S. custody. He was released without ever being prosecuted.

War on terror is war on Islam, says advocate

By Dazeylin 0 Comments

Categories: Detainee

By Nisa Islam Muhammad Staff Writer

WASHINGTON (FinalCall.com) - The global war on terror has become a thinly veiled excuse to wage a global war on Islam with increased arrests of Muslims, calls for regime change in Muslim countries and racial profiling, according to a leader with a national Islamic organization.

“The tactic of terrorism—and yes it is a tactic, not an ideology—has been deployed by a multitude of groups of different religions, ethnicities and ideologies and yet the Islamic faith, unlike any other, is erroneously and incessantly associated with terrorism,” said Dr. Parvez Ahmed, a national board member of the Council on American Islamic Relations. “The association of a faith practiced by 1.2 billion people worldwide to terrorism creates the perception that the GWOT is a war against Islam.”

Around the world since 2001 there have been increases in the arrest and detention of Muslims.

Dr. Ahmed explained that right after 9/11 World Trade Center attacks, the federal government subjected 80,000 Arab and Muslim immigrants to fingerprinting and registration, sought out 8,000 Arab and Muslim men for FBI interviews and imprisoned over 5,000 foreign nationals in anti-terrorism preventive detention compounds.

“These arrests and detentions did not result in the conviction of a single person for a terrorist crime. Thus the U. S. government’s record for the largest ethnic profiling campaign stood at 0 for 93,000,” he said.

A masters student researching terrorist tactics who was arrested and detained for six days after his university informed police about al-Qaida-related material he downloaded has spoken of the “psychological torture” he endured in custody.

Despite his Nottingham University supervisors insisting the materials were directly relevant to his research, Rizwaan Sabir, 22, was held for nearly a week under the Terrorism Act, accused of downloading the materials for illegal use. The student had obtained a copy of the al-Qaida training manual from a US government website for his research into terrorist tactics.
