Enforcing the Geneva Conventions

With the giant jellyfish starting to revert to it’s role of stenographer in the prison abuse scandal, reporting the MP’s getting sent down, but not pushing how high it goes, it’s worth noting there are knowledgeable sites that continue to tackle the full breadth of the issue.

On the question of how high and how encouraged the actual torturers were, Sgt Provance indicates they were clearly too smart to issue confirmable orders, we can be assured these people are well schooled in Watergate’s “failings”. Major General Miller and the religious zealot General Boykin are the pivotal members of Rumsfelds “Special Access Program” for torture, under many titles including “Copper Green”, purposefully skirting the Geneva Conventions

Longer term background of abuse extending back to Afghanistan and the shooting of prisoners there after inhuman transport in shipping containers to Sherbaghan prison is broadcast by Democracy Now. The Australian media, including the Sydney Morning Herald and Australian Broadcasting Commission is rattling the cage of the Howard government for betraying its citizens to abuse at Guantanamo Bay.

An excellent site to check out is the Project To Enforce The Geneva Conventions, which gives excellent coverage and legal opinion.
