Force-feeding in Guantanamo Bay

Obama is now in his second term, but back when he was running for his first term, he promised to shut down Guantanamo Bay as his first point of duty in office.

At the time it was a big deal, and his promise to shut it down rang true with many voters and this helped him to win the nomination for the Democrats. If it sounds hazy, then take a quick trip down memory lane.

Fast Forward to 2014.

There is video evidence that Guantanamo inmates, held on questionable moral and legal grounds, are being tortured as they undertake hunger strikes in protest of their conditions. Inmates are force fed while restrained in chairs, to the point of vomiting and/or defecting in the chair.

From RT:

No matter how you look at it, force feeding an inmate who is on a hunger strike is torture, and that is against every conceivable American value.

This is NOT change we can believe in. Wake up America, your taxes are funding this, you are supporting this.

Barbaric USA

Barbaric societies execute people who violate the law, especially if the perpetrator is a known murderer.

from Miriam Webster's Dictionary:

Barbaric (definition):

• marked by a lack of restraint
• having bizarre, primitive or unsophisticated quality

In the old days they would stone people to death. Others were flogged to death, or nailed to crosses for crimes much less than murder.

America is right up there with the latest technology, injecting them with lethal drugs.

Hooray for progress.

Civilian Cancer Deaths Expected to Skyrocket Following Radiological Incidents

From: Global Research

by Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER)

The White House has given final approval for dramatically raising permissible radioactive levels in drinking water and soil following “radiological incidents,” such as nuclear power-plant accidents and dirty bombs. The final version, slated for Federal Register publication as soon as today, is a win for the nuclear industry which seeks what its proponents call a “new normal” for radiation exposure among the U.S population, according Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER).

Obama's NSA overhaul may require phone carriers to store more data

From Reuters:

(Reuters) - President Barack Obama's plan for overhauling the National Security Agency's phone surveillance program could force carriers to collect and store customer data that they are not now legally obliged to keep, according to U.S. officials.

One complication arises from the popularity of flat-rate or unlimited calling plans, which are used by the vast majority of Americans.

While the Federal Communications Commission requires phone companies to retain for 18 months records on "toll" or long-distance calls, the rule's application is vague for subscribers of unlimited phone plans because they do not get billed for individual calls.
