Craig Murray: British Ambassador to Uzbekistan (2002). Accountable to Washington. Unwilling to submit to American Hegemony. Discovers evidence of political killings, people being boiled alive. British say, "[you're] becoming over focused on human rights too the determent of British Interests."
Islam Karimov: President of Uzbekistan, Good friend of George Bush. "Rules with brutal unaccountable authority". CIA Michele Sawyer: In charge of assassination attempts on Osama Bin Laden. "... the fact [is] that the United States has supported tyrannies in the Middle East for fifty years... and that is ah very hard to argue with!"
Bush, Mr. & Mrs Clinton, etc.say, "Americans must fight this war because we are being attacked because we have freedoms and liberties and women in the work place a whole list of ephemera that have nothing to do with this war at all"

The Central Intelligence Agency has closed a unit that for a decade had the mission of hunting Osama bin Laden and his top lieutenants, intelligence officials confirmed Monday.
The unit, known as Alec Station, was disbanded late last year and its analysts reassigned within the C.I.A. Counterterrorist Center, the officials said.
The decision is a milestone for the agency, which formed the unit before Osama bin Laden became a household name and bolstered its ranks after the Sept. 11 attacks, when President Bush pledged to bring Mr. bin Laden to justice "dead or alive."

arrendeksays...Hey, awesome, but fix the quote. He said "... in the Islamic World for fifty years"
quantumushroomsays...So the Middle East was a paradise of enlightened rulers before the evil USA exported despotism there?
Ha ha ha.
If the US supports dictators in backwards countries because these evil men serve our interests, then we're the bad guys. BUT if the US gets rid of brutal dictators like Saddam, guess what liberals say? We're STILL the bad guys!
The American people don't have a good Idea of how dangerous the threat is that we face.
Unfortunately, this is true. It's why mecca isn't already a smoldering crater.
Farhad2000says...The intelligence attained from the dictaorship of Islam Karimov has been proven by the Joint Terrorism Analysis Center (JTAC) to be false, exaggerated and attained under tortue to further US and Uzbekistan relations for financial aid purposes.
