Hersh: Doodseskader geleid door Dick Cheney vermoorde Benazir Bhutto
 

Squad run by Dick Cheney assassinated Benazir: Hersh

WASHINGTON, May 18: A special death squad assassinated Pakistans former prime minister Benazir Bhutto on the orders of former US vice-president Dick Cheney, claims an American investigative journalist Seymour Hersh.

Mr Hersh, a Washington-based journalist who writes for the New Yorker magazine and other prominent media outlets, also claims that the former vice-president was running an executive assassination ring throughout the Bush years. The cell reported directly to Mr Cheney.

In an interview to an Arab television channel, Mr Hersh indicated that the same unit killed Ms Bhutto because in an interview with Al Jazeera TV on Nov 2, 2007, she had said she believed Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden was already dead. She said she believed Omar Saeed Sheikh, an Al Qaeda activist imprisoned in Pakistan for killing US journalist Daniel Pearl had murdered Bin Laden.

But the interviewer, veteran British journalist David Frost, deleted her claim from the interview, Mr Hersh said.

The controversial US journalist told Gulf News on May 12 he believed Ms Bhutto was assassinated because the US leadership did not want Bin Laden to be declared dead.The Bush administration wanted to keep Bin Laden alive to justify the presence of US army in Afghanistan to combat the Taliban, Mr Hersh said.

The Pulitzer prize-winning American journalist claimed that the unit also killed former Lebanese prime minister Rafique Al Hariri and the army chief of that country.

Mr Hariri and the Lebanese army chief were murdered for not safeguarding US interests and refusing to allow US to set up military bases in Lebanon. Ariel Sharon, the then prime minister of Israel, was also a key man in the plot, Mr Hersh said.

According to Mr Hersh, Lt-Gen Stanley McChrystal who was last week named the new commander in charge of US forces in Afghanistan, ran the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), an elite unit so clandestine that the Pentagon for years refused to acknowledge its existence.

Gen McChrystal, a West Point graduate and a Green Beret, is currently director of Staff at the Pentagon, the executive to the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

A media report noted that most of what Gen. McChrystal has done over a 33-year career remains classified, including service between 2003 and 2008 as commander of the JSOC.

On July 22, 2006, Human Rights Watch issued a report titled No blood, no foul about American torture practices at three facilities in Iraq. One of them was Camp Nama, which was operated by JSOC, under the direction of then Major Gen. McChrystal.

Gen McChrystal was officially based at Fort Bragg in North Carolina, but he was a frequent visitor to Camp Nama and other Special Forces bases in Iraq and Afghanistan where forces under his command were based.

An interrogator at Camp Nama known as Jeff described locking prisoners in shipping containers for 24 hours at a time in extreme heat; exposing them to extreme cold with periodic soaking in cold water; bombardment with bright lights and loud music; sleep deprivation; and severe beatings.

When he and other interrogators went to the colonel in charge and expressed concern that this kind of treatment was not legal, and that they might be investigated by the militarys Criminal Investigation Division or the International Committee of the Red Cross, the colonel told them he had this directly from Gen McChrystal and the Pentagon that theres no way that the Red Cross could get in.

On March 11, Mr Hersh told a seminar at the University of Minnesota that the unit Mr Cheney headed was very deeply involved in extra-legal operations.

It is a special wing of our special operations community that is set up independently, he explained. They do not report to anybody, except in the Bush-Cheney days, they reported directly to the Cheney office ... Congress has no oversight of it Its an executive assassination ring essentially, and its been going on and on and on.

Mr Hersh said: Under President Bushs authority, theyve been going into countries, not talking to the ambassador or the CIA station chief, and finding people on a list and executing them and leaving. Thats been going on, in the name of all of us.

Although Mr Cheney had ignored such allegations in the past, recently he began responding to these charges, making counter-allegations against the Obama administration.

Last week in particular, Mr Cheney appeared almost daily on popular talk shows and also delivered a formal address at the American Enterprise Institute on the importance of interrogation techniques widely considered to be torture. Once known for his reticence and low profile, Mr Cheney has now become his partys most audible voice.

Media commentators, however, attribute his sudden exuberance to the fear that if he did not defend himself, he might be prosecuted for authorising torture.

Mr Cheney knew, when he began his media assault, that the worst of the horrors inflicted upon detainees at his specific command are not yet widely known, said one commentator. If the real stuff comes into full public light, he feared the general outrage will be so furious and all-encompassing that the Obama administration will have no choice but to seek prosecutions of those Bush-era officials who specifically demanded those barbaric acts be inflicted upon prisoners.

One blogger wrote that Mr Cheney not only authorised water-boarding, putting prisoners in confined spaces, pushing them, slapping them, putting bugs on them or demeaning them and their religious faith.

He quoted former US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld as telling a congressional panel in July of 2004 that if pictures of such acts were released to the public, obviously its going to make matters worse.

Mr Hersh recently gave a speech to the American Civil Liberties Union making the charge that children were sodomised in front of women in the prison, and the Pentagon had tape of it.

wat?
Je zou denken dat My Lai een uitzondering was, maar veel is er niet verandert merk ik steeds vaker. Oorlog is lelijk.

Complete nonsens.

Dat laatste zinnetje ook? Ontkent het pentagon dat? Was jij erbij misschien? Of wil je het niet geweten hebben?

Het zijn artikels als deze die mij duidelijk maken dat het Amerikaanse beleid in die landen minstens even immoreel is als wat men de tegenstanders verwijt. Benieuwd of dit ook tot in onze pers geraakt.

Bedankt om het te posten,

Andy

Bhutto is, naar mijn gevoel, inderdaad vermoord omwille van die uitspraak.

Terwijl het Pentagon en het Witte huis de naam Bin Laden te pas en te onpas misbruikten om hun War on Terror te verantwoorden, beweerde Bhutto dat Bin Laden al lang dood was.

Dat zal wel serieus in het verkeerde keelgat van Cheney & Friends geschoten zijn.

Het blijkt nep te zijn

I did not say Cheney killed Benazir: Hersh

natuurlijk

Het was te zot om los te lopen.
Bhutto was een van de weinige pro-westerse politici in Pakistan die een dam kon vormen tegen de Taliban.

Even geloofwaardig als het verhaaltje dat Fabiola de lul van Titi heeft afgezogen.

Waarom sturen ze dan geen doodseskaders naar kleine garnalen als Alex Jones en zijn duizenden tierende pummels? Of Naomi Klein? Noam Chomski? ... genoeg keuze, genoeg zotten die veel hoger op het lijstje staan..

Bhutto was een vrouw. Dat zal vele extreme-paki's in't verkeerde keelgaatje geschoten zijn..

“This is another example of blogs going bonkers with misleading and fabricated stories and professional journalists repeating such rumours without doing their job – and that is to verify such rumours.” staff report

Volgens mij is deze "fabricated story" al langer bekend.

En ook errug waar.
Mevrouw Bhutto moet een paar dingetjes gezegd hebben die de Ami's niet zo fijn vonden. (Ze zou trouwens zelf enkele weken voor de "mysterieuze aanslag" gezegd hebben dat ze zich niet echt veilig voelde)
En neen, ik heb geen zin of tijd om het allemaal opnieuw te gaan opzoeken op Youtube enzo (als het er natuurlijk nog op staat natuurlijk).

Voor wie hier niet mee kan leven en op voorhand vindt dat zoeken verloren tijd is:
De Amerikanen zijn inderdaad het eerlijkste en vrijheidsminnendste volk ter wereld.
Hun leiders zijn nOg meer begaan met hun medemens dan alle andere overheden ter wereld. :turn-l:

Voil�*.

Alex Jones e.a roepers zijn inderdaad, zoals je zelf aangeeft, kleine garnalen in vergelijking met Bhutto en dus absoluut niet te vergelijken.

Hoger op het lijstje.:roll:

Kleiner, gemakkelijker uit te schakelen en brengen DAGELIJKS schade aan met infowars.com, radio, satelliet tv nu ook, youtube, online docu's, "9/11 was an inside job" rallies, vertoningen op Press Tv (Iran) en Russia Today,...
Hoe gemakkelijk is het niet om zo'n wackjob erin te luizen, op virtueel elke manier? Welke vermetelheid was er niet nodig om Bhutto om te leggen?

Bhutto heeft 1 keer iets laten ontvallen tijdens een CNN-interviewtje op een ontiegelijk uur. En de manier waarop... Niemand nam ze ogenschijnlijk serieus, in een tijd dat iedereen er wild op los zat te speculeren! Behalve de "believers" (hoe moeten we die mensen noemen?) die deze filmpjes graag op youtube posten. En Jones maakt daarmee dan z'n prachtige van de pot gerukte collages met de gekende contextuele verkrachtingsstrategie...

Eigenlijk zijn dat nog de grootste klootzakken, die parano roepers die de echte waarheid nog verder de grond in draaien met hun tirades.. Men vangt geen vliegen met azijn..

Het verschil is dat Bhutto een mainstream persoon is en Alex Jones is dat niet. Bhutto werd vaak vermeld op het internationale nieuws. Bhutto verklaarde overigens op mainstream tv dat Bin Laden dood was.

Zeer juiste analyse imho.

Alex Jones is makkelijk te debunken door het apparaat. Bhutto uiteraard niet.

kort en krachtig.
Deze draad hoort eigenlijk thuis in de NWO-draad

Genoeg gezegd :)

Euh...ik zou nu niet bepaald Noam Chomsky en Naomi Klein over dezelfde kam scheren als Alex Jones. Volgens mij moet je eens lezen wat die eerst mensen schrijven. Interessant.
