    US foreign policy...those that commit war crimes are patriots, those that report war crimes are traitors (Chelsea Manning).
    Those that commit war crimes are awarded medals and promotions, those that report war crimes are prisoned for life.
    CMTSU

    CIA officers "are patriots, and whatever the report says, if it diminishes their contributions to our country, it is way off base," George W. Bush said Sunday in an interview on CNN.

    From Washpost mocking that this report will put people in danger compared to our actions.

    ABDUL: Ahmed, why won’t you come with me to attack the infidels? You are not outraged that the United States has invaded Afghanistan and Iraq and caused so much suffering in two Muslim countries?

    AHMED: It’s not enough for me to take up arms.

    ABDUL: You are not outraged that in the past three years the great Zionist oppressor has waged air campaigns against two Arab countries — Syria and Libya — and accomplished little but to extend the suffering of our Muslim brothers and sisters?

    AHMED: It’s not enough for me to take up arms.

    ABDUL: You are not outraged that the great Western imperialist power has launched drone strikes with impunity in two other countries — Yemen and Pakistan — killing scores of innocent Muslim families in the process?

    AHMED: It’s not enough for me to take up arms.

    ABDUL: You are not outraged that the infidel superpower has defended Israel as that Zionist pig-state has done nothing but displace, bomb and humiliate our Palestinian brothers and sisters?

    AHMED: It’s not enough for me to take up arms.

    ABDUL: You are not outraged that two successive U.S. presidents, in two flowery speeches, have claimed that the United States wants to bring human rights and democracy to the Middle East, only to tolerate authoritarian crackdowns in Egypt and the Gulf states?

    AHMED: It’s not enough for me to take up arms.

    ABDUL: You are not outraged about all the stories of infidels torturing our Muslim brothers in Abu Ghraib, in Bagram, in Guantanamo Bay? The stories about infidel soldiers desecrating the Koran?

    AHMED: It’s not enough for me to take up arms.

    ABDUL: You are not outraged by the just-released Senate report about CIA torture?

    AHMED: Wait, did you say ‘Senate report’? Okay, I will take up arms now.

    Proctoclysis – rectal rehydration

    Rectal infusion (proctoclysis) was effectively employed as an emergency treatment during the First World War for combat casualties and routinely used for infusion in clinical settings before the development of IV techniques and equipment rendered the technique redundant.(1) In 2005 a now often cited article described an occasion where improvised proctoclysis in a remote setting was effectively used to treat and initially stabilise a casualty in a remote setting, re-igniting discussion on this technique as an emergency treatment in a remote environment. (2)

    Rectal Rehydration can provide a simple, safe and effective means to rehydrate a casualty who is unconscious or nauseous and with less risk of adversely affecting their haemodynamic balance. The technique requires neither sterile fluids, special equipment or specific training (3, 4)

    Proctclysis may be of benefit for those who work in developing countries or rural areas, where there can be little access to hospital care or where sterile cannula, fluids and giving sets are expensive. It could also be useful in mass casualty situations where clinical teams must administer fluid resuscitation despite having insufficient intravenous equipment or nursing staff. (5) The primary aim of proctoclysis in such emergency situations is to provide initial fluid resuscitation in advance of rapid evacuation for further care in a dedicated medical facility. (2)

    Rectal Hydration (proctoclysis) Rectal hydration is an alternative only when other resources are not available. A 22 French nasogastric catheter can be inserted approximately 40 cm into the rectum. The patient can be positioned as for any rectal procedure. Tap water can be used, and the rectal infusion increased from 100 ml to a maximum of 400 ml per hour, unless fluid leakage occurs before the maximum volume is achieved. The majority of patients can successfully tolerate this approach at a volume of 100 to 200 ml per hour.

    Good article about the hypocrisy of leaked classified information. When the cia does it to shape a narrative its okay, anyone else, prosecution.

    Speaking of hypocrisy

    "No records to indicate CIA held personnel accountable for detention of individuals CIA itself determined were wrongfully detained"

    The whole "freedom isn't free" line cracks me up.

    If it's not free can't be freedom now can it.


    USA USA USA USA.



    We're such good sheeple.
