China And Iran Slam America After CIA Report
Sky News ^ | December 10, 2014 | By Sky News US Team

Posted on 12/10/2014 5:19:35 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

China and Iran have slammed the United States after a Senate report revealed that the CIA brutalised terror suspects after the 9/11 attacks. The fallout has reached well beyond the US.

China - a country often accused by rights groups of using torture - on Wednesday called on the US to "correct its ways and earnestly respect and follow the rules of related international conventions".

Iran, where America was famously called the "Great Satan", said the report showed the US government is a "symbol of tyranny against humanity".

President Barack Obama said the techniques "did significant damage to America's standing in the world and made it harder to pursue our interests with allies and partners".

Iran attacked the WTC first.

al Qaeda attacked the WTC and destroyed it and 3000 Americans.

In response, the EXEMPT US Congress under the
undocumented First Moslem by Fraud has armed BOTH
against Americans and their allies.

Those who jumped from the WTC on 911 would not
believe that in 2014, the USA was run by a
a proven-lying, undocumented Moslem who was arming BOTH.

I hope the CIA comes down on the America-hating commies in Congress like a ton of bricks.

That old bag POS has prospered mightily from her lofty senate seat and now the ultimate betrayal to the nation she swore to protect by her ‘oaf’ of office. Totally despicable and she can rot away along with her fellow Dem traitors.
A toilet bowl brown dump has more honor.

I hope the CIA gets rebuilt from the ground up, it does not deserve to survive, it has failed real Americans who have the basic decency not to believe in torture.

Hannity made a good point last night-—whats worse, Obama’s drones killing civilians by mistake or a few water boardings and such of murderous terrorists?

Hannity is an entertainer, not a thoughtful commentator. His false framing of the question is not helpful. The United States needs to behave.

Did you know that the image you linked to in post #1 is “rather curious” ?

It has no image metadata normally placed in the file by cameras. This is the extent of its metadata:

File
File Type JPEG
MIME Type image/jpeg
Comment CREATOR: gd-jpeg v1.0 (using IJG JPEG v62), quality = 90.
Image Width 650
Image Height 300
Encoding Process Baseline DCT, Huffman coding
Bits Per Sample 8
Color Components 3
Y Cb Cr Sub Sampling YCbCr4:2:0 (2 2)
JFIF
JFIF Version 1.01
Resolution Unit None
X Resolution 1
Y Resolution 1
Composite
Image Size 650x300

gd-jpeg is simply an open source image programming library.

I opened up the image in GIMP, and at 2:1 zoom, the area around the plane appears quite oddly digitized. At 8:1 and 16:1 zoom, it becomes very obvious that the sky right around the plane is vey digitally choppy compared to the rest of the sky.

Here’s a link to the image which I linked to in fotoforensics.com:

http://fotoforensics.com/analysis.php?id=4f1d08f2ba2e2e078314241ee6faf08cbeee6fb1.49287&show=ela

You can explore the image there and read up on the analysis.

Quite sketchy compared to digital photos I’ve seen, but I’m no expert.

Perhaps a FReeper with more image knowledge can offer more analysis.

If there are issues on how we apply interrogation methods isn’t that a topic to be discussed within and not announced to the world? What this rotten report is purely political in scope. If you defend this announcement then who are you and where do you stand?

I am a very conservative Latin Mass former female JAG officer who was devastated when it came out that the CIA had abandoned American values
