I suspect, many common individual Americans may have disappeared already from extrajudicial actions? There's the odd case of thousands of pairs of shoes and other footwear dumped on the Palmetto Expressway outside Miami--just a year ago. There's Cynthia McKinney's report of possible executions of state prisoners in the lousiana swamps in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. There's operation Falcon and it's many iterations of picked up sex offenders. It seems, there's some question accounting for them? It seems a distinct possibility extrajudicial disappearance is already with us?Xnihilatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00459423088062367844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2492007072400883438.post-21847903504468918722010-02-02T07:33:34.748-08:002010-02-02T07:33:34.748-08:00So much that surrounds Awlaki is heresay and specu...So much that surrounds Awlaki is heresay and speculation-turned-fact. It seems like because OBL is a joke, they need someone they can find and kill (not that assassination is a new trick). I think all the publicity around it is to make it look like they're doing something moral, as if murder can actually be debated. In the past, the assassination would just happen. In my opinion, the targeting of Awlaki is part of the ideological war to wipe out the scholars that addresses America's foreign policy (regardless of whether or not Awlaki's opinions were correct, if even everything on his website WERE his opinions). It's also strange to me how his imprisonment in a location known for torture and subsequent release is hardly brought up. Why would they release him if he is some big bad?Shamhathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10081473239195668203noreply@blogger.com
