U.N. Liberal Insists On Prosecution For CIA Operatives
President Barack Obama’s decision not to prosecute CIA operatives who used questionable interrogation practices violates international law, the U.N.’s top torture investigator said Saturday.
Liberal Eurabia once again wants to provide comfort and aid to the enemy, who will stop at nothing to kill westerners, Christians and Israelis. I guess they did not learn anything from the British Anti-Terror operations, Madrid Bombings and India attacks.
On Thursday, Obama absolved CIA officers from prosecution for harsh, painful interrogation of terror suspects under the former Bush administration. The announcement was met with disappointment from human rights groups and former detainees who condemned such methods as torture.
But it is not torture or inhumane treatment that western troops, contractors or reporters receive when they are captured. I guess Daniel Pearl was treated in a humane fashion. I guess Jessica Lynch was treated in accordance with the Geneva Convention. This liberal and useless debating society seems to have no real understanding of just how brutal and fanatical these terror cells are. They hold no regard for life. They care only for their cause. So why are we brutalized for harsh interrogation techniques that have utilized results and saved lives.
In a brief telephone interview with The Associated Press, Manfred Nowak, an Austrian who serves as a U.N. special rapporteur in Geneva, said the United States had committed itself under the U.N. Convention against Torture to make torture a crime and to prosecute those suspected of engaging in it.
“They are party to the convention and the convention is very, very clear,” Nowak said when asked to confirm comments contained in an interview he gave Austria’s Der Standard newspaper. “The fact that you carried out an order doesn’t relieve you of your responsibility,” he said, adding it could be a mitigating factor.
However (and in a suprise move by the Obama administration), CIA operatives were operating under legal and approved methods. So where does the UN debating society get off saying they want prosecutions?
Nowak, who said he would soon travel to Washington for meetings with officials, also called for a comprehensive independent investigation into the matter and added it was important to compensate the victims.
OK, so this liberal, let the terrorist off the hook elitist, not only wants to pardon these people, but wants the US to pay compensation. Well when Daniel Perl is compenstated along with the 3000 plus people in the World Trade Center, both flights, the Pentagon Flight and the Pennsylvania flight get compensated by the UN and those countries responsible, maybe we will think about it.
