    mysteriously appeared thru the usenet mist to inform us thus...   
      
   >Diego Garcia.   
   >   
   >Condoleeza Rice is coming to Europe. 'Rendition' - i.e. US State   
   >kidnappings and torture - is a big story.   
   >   
   >Remember 'strategic hamlets' in Vietnam?   
   >   
   >US propagandists are focusing 'discussion' on distractions, e.g.   
   >   
   >- the model numbers of the aircraft involved   
   >- the exact number of flights through such-and-such an airport   
   >   
   >(Same sort of 'snow job' is going on re. nuclear power).   
   >   
   >Well, the US torture camp on UK soil HAS been exposed. It's NOT secret   
   >any more.   
   >   
   >It's just that the running-dog western press have been told hardly ever   
   >to mention it. And certainly not to mention it anywhere near words such   
   >as 'illegal', 'war crimes', and 'international trial'.   
   >   
   >And yes, UK officials are just as guilty as their US chums. No need to   
   >get a quote from some SIS-friendly law chambers to understand that.   
   >   
   >Editors are being careful not to say any prisoners have been held on   
   >British soil. They mention only 'refuelling' at 'airports'. Got that,   
   >old boy?   
   >   
   >See what they're doing? It's like 'cash for questions'.   
   >   
   >So: which journalist will have the guts to ask Condoleeza Rice about the   
   >US torture camp on UK soil in Diego Garcia?   
   >   
   >I'll repeat: US TORTURE CAMP ON BRITISH SOIL, IN DIEGO GARCIA.   
   >   
   >Or maybe an SIS officer will place a question or article, and forget   
   >about keeping in the good books of his Langley-paid superiors? Come on.   
   >Miss a promotion? Get your own back!   
      
   I've just watched Condoleeza Rice speaking about these torture sites.   
   Distraction, diversion and obfuscation is the order of the day...   
      
   She said: "...nor do we violate the sovereignty of other nations".   
      
   Of course she failed to mention that in most cases US bases anywhere   
   in the world are defined as US sovereign territory.
