the 'disappeared' in some south american countries a while back? the anguish in the mother's eyes? do you remember thinking HOW HORRID to have to live that way. to be afraid of your government and it's dirty evil secrets. to be afraid a family member will be stolen away in the night never to be seen again. do you remember? i sure do

More on "Operation Condor," What Horrors May Await America, Kissinger, and the Disappeared

Submitted by BuzzFlash on Tue, 10/10/2006 - 4:21pm.
A BUZZFLASH NEWS ANALYSIS In our editorial that caromed around the Internet, "Torture, Murder, Bush, Kissinger and The Mothers of the Disappeared in Argentina: America on the Brink of Horror," we warned that the legacy of U.S. governments – particularly under the Rumsfeld/Cheney/Kissinger/Bush leadership through various GOP administrations – supporting torture and murder to suppress dissent in other countries may be coming to America.
This is no idle conspiracy theory. As we pointed out in our editorial, the U.S. Congress has now given Bush enough legal maneuvering room to declare U.S. citizens supporters of terrorists. Since Bush has openly accused any American who disagrees with his disastrous "war on terror" a "tool of the terrorists," he is legally now able to "disappear" us. This is not idle theory. We no longer have the protection of habeas corpus, if Bush invokes his powers to fight "terror."
One of the key proponents, over the years, of torturing and murdering dissenters in nations that experience strong challenges to their oligarchies or ruling class elite is Henry Kissinger.
Bob Woodward recently told an interviewer that Dick Cheney called him up and swore at him for revealing that Kissinger is now advising Cheney and Bush.
We thought that for the record, we would amplify a bit the comment we made in our editorial that Kissinger avoids traveling to a number of nations because he would face judicial questioning about his role in "Operation Condor."...................

Last months edtion of the Atlantic Monthly had a short article in which the author examined how long it would take the US to recover from Bush. He more or less said for various reasons ten to fifteen years. I have come to my own conclusion that if the Democrats don't win at least one house of Congress AND the White House in 2008 this country will not recover. Worse yet if the Democrats do take the House next month and just sit on their thumbs trying not to screw up it may still be already over. If Bush's torture law stands those in power, whomever it may be, may find some reason just to ignore it until they might find a use for it on someone they don't like. Lord Acton's law about power can affect anyone or group.
