Senate Torture Report exposes falsity of 9/11 Commission Report

Vic Sadot 

Now that the Senate Report on US torture is public, let the “War on Terror” be declared over! Acknowledge that it was a criminal fraud on US citizens and on the people of the world. Let the prosecutions begin! 

Read “Torture Architect Tries to Justify Program … Fails Miserably” By Washington's Blog in Global Research, December 16, 2014. 


7 key Excerpts: 

"It is a distinct possibility that Al Qaeda suspects who were the exclusive source of information for long passages of the (9/11) commission’s report may have been subjected to “enhanced” interrogation techniques, or at least threatened with them, because of the 9/11 Commission….”(by making torture testimony the main support for it’s “official conspiracy story”). 
 
The government has since backed away from all claims that Abu Zubaydah had any role in Al Qaeda or 9/11. For example – in September 2009 – the U.S. government admitted in writing in a court proceeding that Abu Zubaydah had never been a member or associate or supporter of al-Qaeda, was not involved in 9/11, and had no prior knowledge of 9/11… 

And yet Abu Zubaydah is a centerpiece of the government’s entire narrative about 9/11, torture and spying. Kevin Ryan – who has interviewed 9/11 Commissioner Lee Hamilton, Abu Zubaydah’s attorney and other knowledgeable people – documents how central Abu Zubaydah is to the 9/11 Commission Report…  

President Bush personally used the perceived value of Zubaydah’s capture and torture to justify the use of the CIA’s torture techniques as well as the detention of suspects in secret CIA prisons around the world…  

The U.S. government used the questionable intelligence obtained from Zubaydah in order to justify the invasion of Iraq. Officials stated that the allegations that Iraq and al-Qaeda were linked through training people on the use of chemical weapons came from Zubaydah… 

Zubaydah’s torture testimony was also used to justify the use of military tribunals, moving the trial of alleged al Qaeda suspects out of the open civil courts. President Bush asked Congress in a speech in September 2006 to formulate special rules in order to try Abu Zubaydah via military commission in Guantanamo Bay… 

In addition to justifying the use of illegal torture techniques, the Bush administration used Zubaydah’s capture as justification to accelerate its … 


Lyrics Live for you to sing in your community! "Tell John Yoo That Torture is a Crime" - Boalt Hall, UC Berkeley (3:55) Oaks4Peace YouTube Channel. Vic Sadot, Code Pink, and Berkeley residents singing "Tell John Yoo That Torture is a Crime" outside Boalt Hall at UC Berkeley campus, on Dec 12, 2014. The Senate just released its report confirming that the US had used torture in Guantanamo and elsewhere to get testimony for the 9/11 Commission’s official story that 19 Arabs wreaked havoc on a defenseless US military-intelligence complex. This story justifies extraordinary renditions and torture as Cheney called it “the dark side” of the so-called “war on terror”. This song was sung at the end of Code Pink’s “Press Conference to Call for DOJ Prosecution of Professor John Yoo for Torture”. http://youtu.be/kolmk29-r6o
