This illegal genocide of indigenous babies and forced torture on POWS incarcerated in Cuba caught after a drag net is unacceptable to American values. US taxpayers paid millions of dollars without knowledge of the insidious authorization of two Bush administrations under the coercion of the Central Intelligence Agency. Military intelligence is for the most part an oxymoron. Intelligence of diplomacy does not cause international violations of human and civil rights.
Dear Ones,
Ex–Vice-President Dick Cheney at last admitted that US prisoners of war, euphemized to "detainees" who were never charged with a crime, were 25% innocent. But torture in general is illegal by USA standards and the United Nations, etc. With missionary zeal this hunter, who accidentally shot his friend, also was careless about inherent human rights. He didn't care as he said if he had a chance to do it again, "He would!" [The emphasis is my own.]
I wonder if he would have also condoned secret sterilizing of Indian women–those who were coerced against their will or didn't know what happened against their consent. Even fifteen year old girls were victims sterilized by the CIA for a super Aryan "race."
Indigenous people have been tortured enough with brutality and loss of their land and resources–ever since Christopher Columbus landed at San Salvador in the Bahama Islands of the Americas.
The "discoverers" began scalping Indians and bashing their babies against tree trunks–under threats from Spanish royalty to give up their gold now decorating Christian cathedrals of Europe. This gold and silver is still in the hands of the richest religion and its Vatican with a no fly-zone over it. In retaliation, scalping was later carried out by indigenous men grieving over the brutal, savage deaths of their family members.
Research for my paper titled "Scalping is Hair Raising Torture" was presented at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh. The contents revealed this horrendous, vicious inhumane attack started along the Black Sea in south eastern Europe that drains into the Mediterranean Sea.
