Now The US Tortures For The Chinese
I'm used to being staggered by the disgusting indecency of th Bush administration's embrace of torture. But whenever one feels that you cannot be shocked any more, we discover another atrocity. Here's what we are now being told by the FBI:
According to the report by Justice Department Inspector General Glenn
Fine, an FBI agent reported a detainee belonging to China's ethnic
Uighur minority and a Uighur translator told him Uighur detainees were
kept awake for long periods, deprived of food and forced to endure cold
for hours on end, just prior to questioning by Chinese interrogators.
Susan Manning, a lawyer who represents several Uighurs still
held at Guantanamo, said Tuesday the allegations are all too familiar.
U.S. personnel "are engaging in abusive tactics on behalf of
the Chinese," she said Tuesday. When Uighur detainees refused to talk
to Chinese interrogators in 2002, U.S. military personnel put them in
solitary confinement as punishment, she said.
The sleep deprivation, food manipulation, and hypothermia are classic Gestapo methods for torturing prisoners. And the United States now does these unspeakable acts at the behest of the Communist regime in China.
