"On July 1, videos surfaced on the Internet and Mexican television depicting police officers practicing torture techniques in the city of León, Guanajuato. The videos reveal ongoing ties between Mexican authorities and US military contractors, and an escalation of repressive measures against the Mexican working class, youth and peasantry. The tapes show an English-speaking private contractor training the officers, a chilling image that brought back memories of the “Dirty War” of the 1970’s and 80’s, when the Mexican government systematically hunted down and tortured left-wing students and peasants with the complicity and assistance of the United States."
This is a part of US's political work (Plan Mexico)just like they did in bloody wars in Plan Colombia. I am a bit lost at the moment to bring my mind to focus. But you can see the logic. I will read on and you will do as well, I hope.
"A second video shows a blindfolded man having his head submerged in a hole filled with rats and feces. He gasps and moans for air, and has mineral water squirted up his nose. This technique is similar to “waterboarding”, whereby the victim undergoes near-drowning. The Mexican police are notorious for the use of this method."
I love rats! If you are a bit of someone who likes this sort of stuff the link is at the top. Read it and enjoy. It is lush.. Ahhhhh.....
"Tornero said an English-speaking advisor in the video was from a private US security company, but refused to give further details such as the name of the company, who contracted the company, or for that matter the man’s identity."
I bet i is Blackwater Inc. Any bets?
Oops no bets. As....
"Two men have been identified from the videos by the Mexican press: Jerry Wilson, a British national, and Gerardo Arrechea, a Cuban-Mexican. It is now known that both men are employed by Risk Incorporated, a military contractor based in Miami, Florida."
And some consolation as.....
"The embassy’s claim is disingenuous at best, given the history of the US government in the training of torturers throughout South and Central America by the CIA and at the infamous Army School of the Americas in the 1960s, 70s and 80s. It is much more likely that this work has now been “spun off” to Risk Incorporated and other private contractors"
Sure hope they don't train our police like this. But then again do they tell us all.
If you cannot find the links in this blog, I have majority of them filed, Email me!
