A stupid little lying pervert of a man....
No, I am not talking about Obama--I don't have any
evidence that Obama is a pervert- no, I am talking about Col. Bogdan the
current commander of the Guantanamo task force. Bogdan is the tough guy wannabe who oversaw the men's Qorans
searched back in February---I guess things were just a tad too quiet and the
little man was hoping for a bit more excitement in his current assignment. The
search resulted in a hunger strike- now at least 130 of the 166 men are on a
hunger strike- many of the men have been on that strike since February. The
little man and his friends tried as hard as he could to play down the number of hunger strikers
but as it sometimes happens- the truth- this time about the size of the hunger
strike, found its way out of our gulag.
The
search of the Qorans which led to the hunger strike took place right around the
same time microphones
were discovered in the Camp
Echo meeting rooms- these are the rooms we attorneys are forced to use to meet
with our clients. It apparently irritated the little man that word got out
about the microphones and about the real size of the hunger strike. So, the
little man decided to add to his credibility by claiming that he only just learned about the microphones-coincidently-
right about the same time the microphones were discovered.... and oh yeah, the
little man also claimed that no one was listening to the attorney conversations
that were taking place in the rooms with the microphones.
The
little man is apparently also a lying sack of shit.
With
word out about the new horrors at the camp the International Red Cross made a
visit to see first-hand. The lying little man, apparently enraged that the
international red cross delegates came on the scene to see just WTF he was
doing to the detainees at the base, oversaw the camp raid hours after the delegates left the base. The lying little man even approved the unarmed hunger strikers being shot at- with rubber bullets. All of our clients
were placed in solitary confinement- where they remain to this day. They are
allowed two hours outside- but they are back to the caged outdoor time- with
only two men outside at a time. I remember those days when my other client, the
one who is now a free man, was housed like that under Bush- he deteriorated
quickly (mentally and physically) under those conditions.
But
the strike continues. The men though weakened physically are strong in their
resolve.
The
lying little man apparently next decided that it was the attorneys that are the problem
(not his treatment of the men, his violation of the constitution, court orders,
various treaties or military laws) and therefore it became the lying little
man's new job to find ways to keep the attorneys out of Guantanamo-- so he approved the pulling of the contract for the small commuter plane that we use to get to the base
from Fort Lauderdale. Fortunately the lying little man is stupid too- it
is not just the attorneys who use those planes. The stupid lying little man was
forced to reinstate the contract.
Stuck
with us attorneys still being allowed onto the base it was next announced that
the attorneys could no longer use the military flights into and out of the
base. (Some attorneys would fly one way on the military flights and one way on
the commuter plane-so as not to spend an entire week at the base.) With this
new rule we can only fly on the commuter plane-which runs on Mondays and
Fridays. What this of course means is that for many of us who only have one
client at the base we have to spend an entire week at the base for a one day
visit (showing again how stupid the lying little man is---why would he want all
of us attorneys hanging out at the base for an entire week at a time?)
Fortunately we are a tough bunch and those of us that can take the week
off have been down at the base regularly.
This
of course has apparently pissed off the stupid lying little man even more. So the stupid
lying little man gave some thought about what else he might do to keep the
attorneys away- and word has it that the new- really perverted idea- came from him:
"About two weeks ago, the
military made a shocking threat: A detainee who wants to leave his camp for any
reason is subject to a body search that includes searches of his
genitals."
So
the stupid lying little man is a pervert too. Big surprise, huh? And as perverts
are want to do the stupid little lying pervert of a man found what he hopes is
the perfect threat to the Muslim men at Guantanamo- having their testicles
subject to a physical exam if they want to visit with their
attorneys---because, oh yeah, I forgot to add the fact that attorney visits are
no longer allowed to take place at the camps where the men are housed- we can
now only meet at Camp Echo---the place with the microphones.
And
so I wonder- will this outrage be enough to get even one of those judges in DC to stop acting
as a doormat for the Department of Defense and Department of
"justice?"
Stay
tuned---but don't hold your breath.
