"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
It wouldn’t surprise me to see the Ninth Circus help these bums out and have to be overturned by SCOTUS again.
“The center argues that the program jeopardizes its ability to represent clients with suspected Al Qaeda ties because it cannot be sure that confidential telephone calls and e-mail correspondence with the Cuba detainees and their families overseas will stay private.”
Nothing quite like throwing a rock into a pack of dogs and seeing which one yelps first, LOL.
That says it all. And it'll be appealed to the 9th Circus, the most overturned circuit EVER. Bunch of bozos.
Hmmmmm ..?? I didn’t know a MACHINE was called the US Attorney General.
That’s right .. the PERSON listening is a MACHINE. The machine is listening to conversations between SUSPECTED TERRORISTS or KNOWN TERRORISTS in and out of the USA.
Whenever the machine picks up a suspect word [don’t know how that’s programmed] then the call is listened to .. only then is the conversation recorded .. and only then is the conversation further interpreted by humans.
I heard this explanation from someone who helps run the program - I think they were testifying before congress.
This is NOT DOMESTIC SPYING.
My captors torment me with too much prayer time and a new Koran,
My friends are all here with me.
In my despair, I have nothing but entertainment for comfort,
For it is television which sustains me in my horribly cozy quarters
Surrounded by a disgusting lack of filth and no want for toiletries
To which I am a stranger.
May I live to see a day unfilled by placid contemplation, exercise and good meals!
May I live to flee from this free expert medical care!
May Allah be praised-ooh, a Twinkie!
BULL before WWII we were intercepting the communications to the Japanese embassy and in many cases had them translated before the embassy.
