And we, as responsible citizens, must act in lieu of the uncooperative media to get the facts out on the public radar.
Please let us take matters into our own hands by taking the following actions, just ten minutes per week will do. Choose one or more of the following, depending on what your time allows:
A) Send articles around the Web.
B) Email the same article to a chain of concerned friends, asking them to pass it on to at least five other concerned individuals.
C) Dial in to radio talk shows and speak! Send them the articles you have read and demand, on the airwaves, that they review it.
D) In so doing, please rebut the assumption that terrorists are automatically guilty:
~Is a mere newspaper photograph ample burden of proof? (Wake up, Americans!)
~Is a "trial" based on violently-forced "Evidence" (false confessions) done without due process of law, adequate "proof" for us Americans that any given detainee is a "terrorist" as accused?
~Should we Americans rest easy, knowing that the guilty walk free and the innocent are tortured? Does this really "protect" us from terrorism?
~Are we perfectly content to fund such Charles Manson-like crimes on our tax dime? Would we pay Charles Manson and his gang?
~Where our learned helplessness is concerned, who is paying who? Remind the public to remind Congress: We pay them to uphold, protect and defend the Constitution! (And, to protect America from negative press overseas and Americans themselves from the consequences of that bad press).
E) Please spread the word phrase around: "No Crime on My Dime!" Ask others to spread it too.
F) Write an article granting permission for readers to freely seed it around the web.
G) Write a letter to your local college newsletter editor. College kids are much more likely to print such material than mainstream media, and what's more is that they talk to their parents, thus helping to wake the sleeping giant. It's a smart strategy which will work!
LET'S PUT PRESSURE ON THE MEDIA:
Please write the newspapers, letting them know that you are carbon copying them (with their email address in plain view) to a chain of concerned citizens. While blind-carbon-copying those citizens, let the papers know that you and your friends will stop patronizing them if they do not print full-disclosure truth about torture matters, including techniques that frankly make water boarding look pale by comparison.
