MOB RULE WakeUpWalMart: "Last week, Republican Congressman, and former Majority Leader of the U.S. House of Representatives, Tom DeLay was arrested and booked on state conspiracy and money-laundering charges. As if corruption at the highest level of our government isn't bad enough, it turns out Wal-Mart actually gave Tom Delay money 2 days after he was indicted. That's right. Wal-Mart made a $5,000 contribution to support Tom Delay's corruption 2 days after his indictment." As Delay is not a man without financial means, Wal-Mart's contribution is a political statement of allegiance to the Mafia that now rules America. Madison: "The Chicago Tribune produced an incredible story last week detailing how unsuspecting young men from poor countries are tricked into working in dangerous jobs for a Halliburton subsidiary in Iraq.

Most of those falling for the fraudulent job offers are impoverished Asians who, the newspaper said, 'often are deceived, exploited and put in harm's way with little protection'." ICH: "At least 21 detainees who died while in US custody in Iraq and Afghanistan were the victims of homicide and usually died during or after interrogations, according to an analysis of Defence Department data."

Interviews conducted on Tuesday by the two organizations revealed widespread claims of abuse against pretrial detainees who had been evacuated to Jena from Jefferson Parish Prison because of Hurricane Katrina. Every detainee but one of the 23 interviewed reported that he had been hit or kicked by the prison staff. " Indystar: "The Bush administration has proposed exempting CIA employees from a legislative measure, endorsed this month by 90 members of the Senate, that would bar cruel and degrading treatment of any prisoners in U.S. custody." ACLU: "Autopsy reports reveal homicides of detainees in U.S. custody. Nevertheless, the US continue their hypocritical campaign of lies to gain control in Syria. 11:50:14 AM
