I figured I'd post the 2007 EU statement on War Crimes committed by US in OIF

. whereas it is necessary to create efficient legal instruments to combat terrorism within the framework of both international and national law,

J. whereas the United States (US) Government's strategy to combat terrorism has made use of pervasive instruments to monitor sensitive data relating to European citizens, such as the Passenger Names Record (PNR) agreement, and to monitor bank details through the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (Swift) network,

K. whereas this report is not intended to be an attack on the secretive nature of the secret services, but rather is intended to denounce the unlawfulness of those secret activities which, in the circumstances under investigation, led to the infringement of national and international law in the absence of appropriate democratic control,

L. whereas on 6 September 2006, US President George W. Bush confirmed that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was operating a secret detention programme outside the United States,

M. whereas President George W. Bush said that the vital information derived from the extraordinary rendition and secret detention programme had been shared with other countries and that the programme would continue, which raises the strong possibility that some European countries may have received, knowingly or unknowingly, information obtained under torture,

N. whereas the Temporary Committee has obtained, from a confidential source, records of the informal transatlantic meeting of European Union (EU) and North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) foreign ministers, including US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, on 7 December 2005, confirming that Member States had knowledge of the programme of extraordinary rendition, while all official interlocutors of the Temporary Committee provided inaccurate information about this matter,

I'm already working on 2016

David Cozad has already thrown his hat in the ring-he's running against Barton again in district 6.He ran on 11K last term, and 3K of that was his. If you are considering donating to a national candidate, Please consider a small donation to David.There are several Blue holes in Arlington...we just need to connect them.

A HUGE favor in Texas= Help David Cozad beat Joe Barton

David has already thrown his hat in for the 2016 District 6 House race. He is a Veteran, an engineer and a high school teacher.He is as progressive as you can get in Texas, and is very pro-public education...and like Leticia Van de Putte, wants free community college for all Texas Residents. Joe Barton is a man with no conscience who has sold his soul to oil and gas.

Help Dave by contributing here:

David tried to beat Joe with 11000 last go around.... and still got more crossover votes than Wendy.With more airtime and public visits in the district,as well as the usual propaganda-type stuff, David WILL beat Joe. I am pushing progressive television and magazines to Obsess on David. I'm trying for an article a month. I am the one with fangs who rides in the trunk.Thanks, and I'll keep you informed as we go!

I need help editing my paper for submission to a medical journal

I've done it all by myself...no one at work wanted to get involved.One of the doctors will cosign so I will be more likely to be published. it is the first of its kind in nursing articles...I want to sound semi-literate.

In MLA form.

Thank you all so much...be honest.
