Bush Destroys US Integrity; Britain Issues Damning Criticism Of US and Torture
How low has the Bush regime taken the US? It's pretty bad when even our traditional ally, Great Britain, doesn't trust what Americans tell them, and all because of the Bushite torture policies, which are war crimes.
When current and former attorneys general sit before Congressional committees and claim waterboarding isn't torture, it's past time for impeachment.
As The Guardian reports: "Britain can no longer believe what Americans tell us about torture, an MPs' report to be published today claims. They also call for an immediate investigation into allegations that the UK government has itself 'outsourced' the torture of its own nationals to Pakistan.
"It also urges the government to press the US authorities for information on whether any American military flights landing in the UK were part of the 'rendition circuit', even if they did not have detainees on board at the time."
Bush and his regime have committed war crimes and destroyed the integrity of the United States.
And impeachment is still off the table.

"In a damning criticism of US integrity, the House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee said ministers should no longer take at face value statements from senior politicians, including George Bush, that America does not resort to torture in the light of the CIA admitting it used 'waterboarding'. The interrogation technique was unreservedly condemned by Foreign Secretary David Miliband, who said it amounted to torture.
"Today's committee report said there were 'serious implications' of the striking inconsistencies between British ministers continuing to believe the Bush administration when it denies using torture. 'The UK can no longer rely on US assurances that it does not use torture, and we recommend that the government does not rely on such assurances in the future,' said the committee. 'We also recommend that the government should immediately carry out an exhaustive analysis of current US interrogation techniques on the basis of such information as is publicly available or which can be supplied by the US.'"It also urges the government to press the US authorities for information on whether any American military flights landing in the UK were part of the 'rendition circuit', even if they did not have detainees on board at the time."
