what is going on???? we got the cia involved in transporting "evil" iraqi and afghans to god only knows where and to do god only knows what to them. perhaps i am wrong, but does this not remind you of the treatment of all the people the nazis disliked?

the "police force" in iraq, the article says that u.s. officials claim that this is nothing like the death squads of latin america, but i beg to differ. the picture that this article describes is excatly like what was going on in latin america. the only difference is that this article did not mention the killings of street kids.

i know am not suprised in the ruthlessness of these men who dictate how these people are to be treated, but what i am suprised of is that these same men and woman seemed to have learned nothing from history. my questions to my friends here on rf are.....
1. what is your take on these two articles?
2. when the world finally says enough is enough with these kinds of policies, what do you think will be the end result for the american and british governments?
3. does this seem to you like a repeat of history's darkest hours of mass murder?

As some one pointed out in another thread, US is slowly moving towards 1939 Germany.

Haven't read them sorry :sarcastic

2. when the world finally says enough is enough with these kinds of policies, what do you think will be the end result for the american and british governments?

Not that much for the USA as they don't recognise the legitimacy of the ICC.

3. does this seem to you like a repeat of history's darkest hours of mass murder?

Hilter didn't quite have nukes when he threatened 'scorched earth'...for God's sake
just keep George W away from a bunker!!!!!!

i'd expect the shiites would be killing the Iraqi Sunni's, they were subjugated for years under an oppressive Sunni muslim, Hussein, and the Sunni's were the dominant minority. There is, of course, some deep-seeded hatred on the part of the Shiites.

the other link didn't work.

sorry the other link didn't work for you. i got it on a pretty good site called the rational enquirer. it was under the heading

eu states warned over cia prisons. it was right up on the top of the list of news stories.

see the death squad thing alarms me because we are there "policing" iraq. if this kind of thing is going on than we obviously are not doing our job.

yes, if there are deathsquads going out and murdering people, that reflects quite badly on the military and country as a whole. I certainly hope our boys and girls out there aren't doing that sort of thing.
