| New Modes of Accountability for Private Military Companies 4 July 29, 2009 WNN -- During an interview at CNN right after she and Sen. Charles Shumer (D-NY) gave the nod to Attorney General Michael Mukasey to replace Alberto Gonzalez despite public outcries for Mukasey to condemn waterboarding as torture, Sen. Feinstein thought her invocation of the Detainee Treatment Act and its euphemisms for torture i.e. "enhanced interrogation techniques" would serve to gloss over American war crimes approved by both Congress and the President. Code Pink thought otherwise and disrupted Sen. Feinstein's tortured definition of the crime.With the parade of current and former high ranking U.S. officials practicing contortionist logic to justify, explain away, or redefine their own complicity in the authorization of torture reaching even the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, it remains to be seen how obtaining accountability for these individuals will proceed. House Judiciary Chairnman, John Conyers made a head fake toward impeachment hearing last Friday, but as with Congress' recent fascination with the non-binding resolution, Conyers appears to be blowing more smoke on the smouldering remnants of his own legacy that, prior to his jelly kneed response to Speaker Pelosi's insistence that "impeachment is off the table," was a stellar career. And with Radovan Karadzic currently cooling his heels in custody while his appeal to avoid extradition to a U.N. war crimes tribunal, it will be interesting to see how U.S. official alleged to have been privvy to the President's torture policy will try to argue that the Geneva Conventions do not apply to themselves as well. |
