I wish George Patton could be in charge of the "reception committee" for the puke Fellow Traveler attorneys arriving there.

This is all about packaging up more unwarranted anti-US propaganda to fire at Uncle Sam from insurgent courts located on American soil.

Don't just claim it, beg for a Newsweek, CBS, or NY Times reporter. They'll swallow anything they're told if it's sufficiently inflamatory. It doesn't even have to be rational, like flushing a whole quaran down a toilet, just get it to the U.S. MSM. They are eagerly waiting for it....

The people at Amnesty haven't got a clue. This is so obvious, but no, always assume the most moral country on the planet is committing atrocities, while the most barbaric groups/countries get no mention.

One of my favorite alleged Gitmo "tortures" included bright flashing lights, intense air conditioning, and loud rock music.

You'd have thought the poor jihadi was remanded to a Jakarta techno club.

I'm going to ask the NEA to give me a grant to put a koran in a jar of urine. If they don't I will seek the help of the ACLU to push for a discrimination suit.

How many civilians or troops are held hostage presently in Iraq? How many of them have been visited by members of the Red Cross or Amnesty International?

Did they visit Nick Berg or decry his captors when they cut his head off?

In a raid on an al Qaeda cell in Manchester, British authorities seized al Qaeda's most extensive manual for how to wage war.

snip

If captured, the manual states, "At the beginning of the trial ... the brothers must insist on proving that torture was inflicted on them by state security before the judge. Complain of mistreatment while in prison."

snip

"Prior to executing an operation, the commander should instruct his soldiers on what to say if they are captured," the document says. "He should explain that more than once in order to ensure that they have assimilated it. They should, in turn, explain it back to the commander."

Who do you think is the head person in charge at Amnesty?
She's a "devout Muslim". You'll never see her denounce the evil ways of Islam. They are corrupted, like most NGO's sitting around the table at the UN.
