Rumsfeld to speak in Chicago

By Sarah A. Klein

U.S. Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, who has maintained a low profile in recent weeks, will speak to the Commercial Club of Chicago on Aug. 6.

Mr. Rumsfeld’s lunchtime talk, titled “An Update on the Global War on Terror,” was arranged on short notice, but demand for tickets has been brisk, says R. Eden Martin, president of the Commercial Club. The business group is sponsoring the talk in conjunction with the Chicago Council on Foreign Relations. Tickets are available on a first-come, first-serve basis to the groups’ members.

3. Rumsfailed Admitted violating Geneva Convention
Rumsfailed Admitted violating Geneva Convention

Rumsfailed admitted in public that when CIA Tentet requested that a prisoner be sent to a secret Afghan/US Prison that Rumsfailed did so. After four months a DOD Attorney stated that this was an illegal act so Rumsfailed ordered that this prisoner be sent back to Abu Graib but the prisoner was not listed at that location on purpose. That is two violations of the Geneva Convention. Tenet and Rumsfailed violated the Geneva convention, thereby also The Constitution of the USA. Not one complaint or charge was made regarding Rumsfailed and Tenet, not even by any Dem in Congress. Rumsfaild's admission came after some in Congress called for his resignation and after Rep. Rangel issued Impeachment of Rumsfailed, which nothing has been heard of since then.

Does the US no longer follow the Geneva Convention or the Constitution of the USA?

It appears so.
