UPDATE:I insist on pointing out to Brian Ross and ABC News, amid their pointing out the US government under the Bush Admin. “didn’t protest this abuse” that just a few weeks ago the Congressional Black Caucus on its glorious trip to Castro’s Communist Cuba did not protest the political prisoners being held there … That just last weekend in his trip to the Summit Of The Americas Obama didn’t protest the incarceration or abuse of political prisoners being held in Cuba … or the abuses of political prisoners and civilian prisoners in Venezuela and other thuggish S. American communist/socialist countries.For ABC to side-handedly hint around amid the release of the CIA “torture” report that this somehow Bush and our government were in compliance and agreement, and maybe even got a thrill out of such torture used for personal retribution, is diabolically asinine. What Pres. Bush said in a private meeting with someone is obviously going to not be out there for media fodder. To somehow put out an assumption that just because he didn’t stand at a TV camera and rip the man a new asshole in public shows how ABC and other media use selective “diplomacy” and “protocol” in such sensitive matters and proves the media would be a very poor and dangerous diplomat for the United States … but then, we already know that.ABC News:ABC News Exclusive: Torture Tape Implicates UAE Royal SheikhPolice in Uniform Join In as Victim Is Whipped, Beaten, Electrocuted, Run Over by SUV By VIC WALTER, REHAB EL-BURI, ANGELA HILL and BRIAN ROSSA video tape smuggled out of the United Arab Emirates shows a member of the country’s royal family mercilessly torturing a man with whips, electric cattle prods and wooden planks with protruding nails.

Previous: Just So We Understand … THIS Is “Torture” Times Online UK: Video: UAE torture recording threatens to derail nuclear deal with United States by Tim Reid A videotape showing a member of the United Arab Emirates Royal Family torturing a man is threatening a multibillion-dollar nuclear power deal between the US and the Gulf kingdom. The 45-minute tape shows a man that the Government of Abu Dhabi has acknowledged is Sheikh Issa bin Zayed al-Nahyan — one of 22 royal brothers of the UAE President and Abu Dhabi Crown Prince — mercilessly and repeatedly beating a man with a cattle prod and a nailed board, burning his genitals and driving his Mercedes over him several times. He is assisted by a uniformed policeman. The fallout from the film — which was smuggled out of the UAE by a former business associate of the sheikh — has reached all the way to the Oval Office, where the civilian nuclear deal, awaiting the signature of President Obama, remains unsigned. A senior US official has said that the Administration is holding off certifying the treaty as a direct result of the film. The deal was sealed on January 15 during President Bush’s last week in office, but needs to be recertified by the new Administration. Under its terms, the US agrees to provide technology and equipment to help the UAE to develop civilian nuclear power plants. In return, the UAE pledges to abide by the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty and not to reprocess its spent nuclear fuel. Jim McGovern, the Democratic co-chairman of the congressional Human Rights Commission, viewed the tape last week and told The Times that it was “one of the most horrific things I have ever seen in my life”. In the tape the sheikh is seen torturing an Afghan grain salesman he claims has cheated him.
