Remember the Torture at Abu Ghraib?

abu-ghraib

By Dr. David Duke, Probably no event in recent history has been more damaging to the image of America than the tortures that occurred at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq. President Bush claimed that one of the justifications of attacking Iraq, was that people were being tortured by Saddam Hussein in that country.

Now that the graphic, disgusting pictures of Abu Ghraib reveal unspeakable tortures of Iraqi men and women in American custody (and the world only saw a very small portion of them), it is certain that America’s enemies will use Bush’s own logic to inspire and justify murderous attacks on Americans.

What happened at Abu Ghraib is as unAmerican and as damaging to America as any attack by al-Qaeda . The tortures that occurred there are symbolic of the fact that America has lost its way and that those in control of our nation have no sense of American justice or our honorable traditions.

No appeal to patriotism is any excuse for the tortures. I am a Patriot. I love America. I even instructed anti-Communist officers for the U.S. Government in Laos during the Viet Nam War. But, what happened at Abu Ghraib is symbolic that America has lost her heart and soul, and I grieve for our lost sense of morality and justice. Any government that would spawn those kinds of injustices on other peoples will someday commit them on its own. Once the line is crossed, there is no going back.

From the beginning of the Abu Ghraib scandal (which we came perilously close to not even finding out about), I was shocked by the sickening sexual nature of the tortures: anal and oral rape of male prisoners, vaginal and oral rape of girls and women, helpless nude Iraqi males tying to protect their genitals from vicious police dogs. Can there be a more horrible image of Americans than what these photos reveal? The whole sordid tale seems like something from the pen of the Marquis de Sade.

The abuse at Abu Ghraib is certainly foreign to traditional concepts of American justice, so how did it come about? After sifting through mountains of evidence, I believe that question can be definitively answered: The same Jewish supremacist forces that orchestrated the Iraq War also brought to Iraq the torture methods of the Israeli State. The tortures of Abu Ghraib are completely consonant with the history of Jewish supremacism. As Jewish manipulators exercise their supremacy over our political and media establishment, America becomes more and more their agent in these crimes. We do so at the risk of all we hold dear.

War has frequently brought horrendous consequences on prisoners of war, but in American history most of those consequences were due to the poor conditions of prison camps, not on a purposeful implementation of tortures. In the War for Southern Independence, both Northern and Southern prisoners of war suffered terrible loses from malnutrition and disease in the prison camps of both sides.

It wasn’t until the aftermath of the Second World War that America suffered the scandal of prison torture. The Jewish media supremacy makes few Americans of today aware of the scandals surrounding the Nuremberg and other war crimes tribunals against the Germans. Sen. Robert Taft of Ohio held congressional hearings that documented the widespread torture of German detainees long after the ending of hostilities.

Army investigators discovered, for instance, that in a group of 139 German detainees, 137 had endured testicular damage at the hands of their interrogators. An American judge who was a member of the Simpson Army Commission that investigated the methods used at the Dachau Concentration Camp spoke out against these policies. In the January 9, 1949, Washington Daily News and in the January 23, 1949, London Sunday Pictorial he told of some examples of the use of torture.


. . .The investigators, he said, “would put a black hood over the accused’s head and then punch him in the face with brass knuckles, kick him and beat him with rubber hoses. . . . All but two of the Germans, in the 139 cases we investigated, had been kicked in the testicles beyond repair.”

 

John F. Kennedy talks about Sen. Taft in his bestselling book, Profiles in Courage. A widely popular Senator and the front runner for nomination to President of the United States, Taft risked and ultimately sacrificed his own presidential ambitions to stand up on what he felt was a vital principle of American morality, and it earned him a place in Kennedy’s popular book. Taft ‘s congressional inquiries made very obvious the Jewish elements behind these outrages.

Iowa Supreme Court justice Charles F. Wenersturm resigned his appointment in the War Crimes Tribunal in disgust at the proceedings. He contended that Jews, many of whom were refugees from Germany and newly made “naturalized” American citizens, dominated the staff of the Nuremberg apparatus and were more interested in revenge than justice.

The entire atmosphere is unwholesome. . . . Lawyers, clerks, interpreters and researchers were employed who became Americans only in recent years, whose backgrounds were embedded in Europe’s hatreds and prejudices.

Even American military hero George S. Patton weighed in on the whole process saying:


I am frankly opposed to this war criminal stuff. It is not cricket and is Semitic. I am also opposed to sending POW’s to work as slaves in foreign lands, where many will be starved to death. (The Patton Papers by Blumenthal)

 

Prolific use of torture by Jewish supremacists is easy to historically document. For instance, in the early days of the Soviet secret police, the Jews thoroughly dominated the greatest torture and mass murder machine in the history of mankind, one that claimed at least 15 million victims and easily eclipsed the alleged Nazi crimes. The fact that every American is extremely cognizant of the “Holocaust” but profoundly ignorant of Soviet mass murder and torture is another fact that pointedly reveals Jewish press power.

Israeli historian Louis Rapaport in his popular book,Stalin’s War Against the Jews, casually admits what we Gentiles are not supposed to know:


Under Lenin, Jews became involved in all aspects of the Revolution, including its dirtiest work. Despite the Communists’ vows to eradicate Anti-Semitism, it spread rapidly after the revolution — partly because of the prominence of so many Jews in the Soviet administration, as well as in the traumatic, inhuman Sovietization drives that followed. Historian Salo Baron has noted that an immensely disproportionate number of Jews joined the new Soviet secret police, the Cheka…. And many of those who fell afoul of the Cheka would be shot by Jewish investigators.

 

When one fast forwards to the State of Israel, from its very beginning torture has been an integral part of the Jewish state. One of the factors that drove the British from Palestine was the torture and murder of British soldiers. Even at present, there is copious evidence that the relatively small populated nation of Israel is the biggest violator of human rights in the world and has one of the highest prison populations in the world. Torture is accepted as a perfectly legal routine against Palestinians.

israel torturesA feature article by Joel Greenburg in the very pro-Israel New York Times titled “Israel Rethinks Interrogation of Arabs”, stated matter-of-factly that Israel tortures 500 to 600 Palestinians every month. That figure, which is probably too low as it comes from the pro-Israel New York Times, means that each year at least 6,000 Palestinians are tortured in Israel. Torture of Palestinians has been going on in Israel since 1948. Even if one uses just one-half of the number of Palestinians that Mr. Greenburg says suffer torture each year — at least 150,000 human beings have been tortured in Israeli jails since the founding of the Jewish state, and likely the numbers are a lot higher.

Two years before the Abu Ghraib abuses came to light I wrote an article about how the Israelis force Palestinians, under the coercion of torture, to sexually abuse each other, including the rape of young Palestinian girls. They photograph the outrages so as to blackmail the detainee when he is released. If the Palestinian will not become an agent for Israel, the Israelis will circulate photos showing him engaged in homosexuality. If he has been forced to rape a Palestinian girl, they will threaten to send pictures of the rape to her family. Such pictures would result in disgrace and probably even death for the offender in the strongly religious Palestinian community.

This established Israeli tactic answers the question of why the thousands of photos were taken at Abu Ghraib. The Israeli interrogators (contractors) at Abu Ghraib instructed our soldiers to commit sexual perversions and to photograph these sordid crimes.

There is clear and ample evidence of direct Israeli involvement at Abu Ghraib. A courageous journalist of the CBC National News did a report showing Israel’s connection to the abuses.

On the May 4 2004, a broadcast of CBC TV’s National News correspondent Neil Macdonald delivered the lead story from Washington:

the occupation of Iraq and George Bush’s unprecedented alliance with the right wing government of Israel has placed Americans overseas in danger.

Macdonald then focuses the camera on a retired US diplomat, Eugene Bird, who makes the suggestion that the Mossad was behind the tortures:

We know that the Israeli intelligence was operating in Baghdad after the war was over. The question should be: Were there any foreign interrogators among those that were recommending very, very bad treatment for the prisoners?

torture trail leads to ghraib independent

The key figure at Abu Ghraib is a shadowy, “third country national” named John Israel. Have any guess as to what nationality he is? Here are excerpts from an article by Robert Fisk of Britain’s The Independent titled The re-writing of Iraqi history is now going on at supersonic speed – 26 May 2004:

And let’s cast our eyes upon that little, all-important matter of responsibility. The actual interrogators accused of encouraging U.S. troops to abuse Iraqi prisoners at Abu Ghraib jail were working for at least one company with extensive military and commercial contacts with Israel. The head of an American company whose personnel are implicated in the Iraqi tortures, it now turns out, attended an “anti-terror” training camp in Israel and, earlier this year, was presented with an award by Shaul Mofaz, the right-wing Israeli defense minister…

In the torture report by U.S. Gen. Antonio Taguba refers to “third country nationals” involved in the mistreatment of prisoners in Iraq.

Taguba mentions Steven Staphanovic and John Israel as involved in the abuses at Abu Ghraib. Staphanovic, who worked for CACI — known to the U.S. military as “Khaki” — was said by Taguba to have “allowed and/or instructed MPs (military police), who were not trained in interrogation techniques, to facilitate interrogations by ‘setting conditions’ … he clearly knew his instructions equated to physical abuse.” One of Staphanovic’s co-workers, Joe Ryan — who was not named in the Taguba report — now says he underwent an “Israeli interrogation course” before going to Iraq…

In a July 3, 2004 report by Britain’s BBC entitled Israeli interrogators ‘in Iraq’ and subtitled The US officer at the heart of the Abu Ghraib prison scandal says she has evidence that Israelis helped to interrogate Iraqis.

The American in charge of Abu Ghraib itself, Gen. Janis Karpinski, claimed that Israeli interrogators were in Iraq

In a detailed article titled “WHO IS JOHN ISRAEL? THE MASTERMIND BEHIND THE ABU GHRAIB OUTRAGE”, Justin Raimondo gives detailed reporting on the Senate hearings on the Abu Ghraib scandal which clearly point to Israeli involvement at every level and the figure of John Israel who has now fled from investigators (to the nation of his surname presumably).

Now in the latest story we learn from morally responsible FBI agents of the torture and abuse of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba

FBI agents back up abuse allegations

December 21, 2004 in the Detroit Free Press
BY CAROL ROSENBERG and FRANK DAVIES
KNIGHT RIDDER NEWSPAPERS

MIAMI — FBI agents in the prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, witnessed abuses of prisoners that included being left in their own feces, chained in ice-cold or super-hot cells and other interrogation techniques that caused one prisoner to pull his hair from his head, documents released Monday show…
The agents’ accounts, contained in e-mails to their superiors to distance the FBI from the behavior, are the first by U.S. officials confirming Guantanamo prisoners’ complaints of sleep deprivation, temperature manipulations, strobe lights and loud music…
Yet on July 30, in one of the e-mails the American Civil Liberties Union made available Monday, an FBI agent wrote that he had seen an almost identical event at the prison, describing, among other things, a prisoner draped in an Israeli flag…
In August, a Boston-based agent described incidents such as this: “I entered interview rooms to find a detainee chained hand and foot in a fetal position on the floor, with no chair, food or water. Most times, they had urinated or defecated on themselves and had been left there for 18-24 hours or more.

Torture victims wrapped in the Israeli flag is very appropriate symbol, for our policies in the Mideast and elsewhere are actually Israeli policies rather than truly American ones. We are spending a king’s ransom in Iraq, we are losing the lives and limbs of thousands of our military personnel, we are making the terrorists around the world more popular than ever. We are endangering America. And, for what? For Israel, that’s what.

And now with the irreparable harm done by the Israeli-orchestrated tortures in Iraq, when will the American people realize that unless we remove these Israeli fifth columnists in government and media we and our children will pay a horrendous price?

Former “civil rights activist,” Jewish supremacist Alan Dershowitz, now has gone beyond his advocacy of torture for those pesky little Palestinians. Now he wants it for American citizens too. In the cosmic scheme of things perhaps every people pays for its sins. What happened at Abu Ghraib, any way you cut it, is evil. If Americans continue to let themselves be used to do evil to others at the behest of Israel, who is to say that the evil won’t eventually fall back upon ourselves and our own children. Look at what is happening to the land of our founding fathers. Every good foundation of our European American forebears is being eroded. Who is to say that the cosmic wheel is not turning right now.

The American people can still avoid being crushed by that wheel. But to survive and thrive will take a great love of truth and a great deal of courage. We must begin by standing up for what is right and good. And that means we must stand up forthrightly against the Jewish supremacists and their pariah state of Israel and tell them that we won’t do their bidding any more!

Yours for our Heritage and Freedom!
