There ain't no Justice, Just Us!

category national | crime and justice | news report author Friday July 15, 2005 16:59author by Davros - Dalek/EU/U.S. platform for justice, liberty and the extermination of uppity types.author address The Planet Skaro Report this post to the editors

In order to protect your liberty and freedoms we must sacrifice your liberty and freedoms.

McDowell and American Ambassador James C. Kenny (the boss of the good folks who gave you the middle finger through the blinds when you protested the U.S. embasy back in the days when you cared about this topic)signed off on measures to cooperate on extradition and against crime. Click below and work your way through the legalese at:
http://www.justice.ie/80256DFD00637EE0/vWeb/pcSSTY5UBER3-en

Yeehah! Justice is a comin'. Here are some comments from Kenny on the Iraq war in the Irish Times, March 9, 2005

"While the road ahead remains difficult, there is much to celebrate. It is in all our interests for the purple-stained fingers of millions of Iraqi men and women to win out over the bloodstained fists of insurgents who are desperate to stop democracy, before democracy can stop them, and to solidify the democratic gains that are being made across the Arab and Islamic world … Unfortunately, some parties are deliberately spreading false information to advance a political agenda, even at the expense of the Iraqi people who need our help, support, and encouragement ... This false information centres around several myths. They do not stand up to scrutiny."

According to Kenny those myths are that, "'100,000 Iraqis killed as a result of the US invasion.' Patently false. Iraq Body Count, a group that is not pro-American, pro-war, or supportive of the Coalition convincingly refutes that falsehood. According the Iraq Body Count website, and as shown daily on the Irish Anti-War Movement’s own website, the actual count of non-combatant civilians killed in Iraq is under 20,000, many killed by insurgents’ car bombs, suicide attacks, beheadings, kidnappings, and executions."

And that, “'Iraq is an illegal war.' Wrong. The UN Secretary General commented last September that he personally believed the war in Iraq was not in conformity with the UN Charter. That is not the institutional judgment. UN Security Council Resolutions 678, 687, and 1441 clearly mandated the use of force against Iraq. A total of 17 UN Resolutions, including 1441, detailed Iraq’s obligations, its refusal to disarm, and the consequences it would suffer for noncompliance. The United States and its partners made sure that the use of force was in compliance with UN Resolutions."

Check out how the United States and its partners made sure that the use of force was in compliance with UN Resolutions on the old reliable:

But heck folks dont'cha all worry if there's any abuse of the extradition deal the U.S.'ll be sure and weed it out itself. Yesterday a U.S. military investigation team announced that it had discovered three cases of abuse at Guantanamo Bay. That's 'three'. Yes folks, ...'three'. Who'd a thought?
