A generally sinking feeling
...sick all over! Has this country become Germany, as the countryman stood back while their military (Hitler's regime) herded the Jews into those concentration camps...and we all know what happened there. While many Germans claimed they knew nothing about what was going on...some did...and did nothing!

Now here we sit in this "Free" America (?????) and we're aware, although distantly of the Torture camps, prisoner mistreatments etc.. etc...

Today we learn that we are not only mistreating prisoners, we are actually hiding them in specified torture camps in several countries. What is going on here? Why isn't the press all over this?

Turns out only ONE person could have signed that order for the CIA to do this..Guess who!!! ..

Proud American today?? NOT!!!

1. MSM is warming to this..
These caps have shown up on the 'net a couple of years ago but today I have seen articles on AOL, MSN and they were just discussing this issue on CNN.
The clmate is a lot better for this to grow legs now.
One can only hope.

4. Stop helping the 'old' media then.....


Help build IWTNEWS.org and rawstory.com ... and DU.

Be a better customer. Help build better news outlets.

It's not like it hasn't happened before. In the past the U.S. papers were pushing for this or that. Let them die. Go find the truth and support it.
