The Central Intelligence Agency crucified a prisoner in Abu Ghraib prison near Baghdad, according to a report published in The New Yorker magazine.
“A forensic examiner found that he (the prisoner) had essentially been crucified; he died from asphyxiation after having been hung by his arms, in a hood, and suffering broken ribs,” the magazine’s Jane Mayer writes in the magazine’s June 22nd issue. “Military pathologists classified the case a homicide.” The date of the murder was not given.
“No criminal charges have ever been brought against any C.I.A. officer involved in the torture program, despite the fact that at least three prisoners interrogated by agency personnel died as a result of mistreatment,” Mayer notes.
An earlier report, by John Hendren in The Los Angeles Times indicted other torture killings. And Human Rights First says nearly 100 detainees have died in U.S. custody in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Hendren reported that one Manadel Jamadi died “of blunt-force injuries” complicated by “compromised respiration” at Abu Ghraib prison “while he was with Navy SEALs and other special operations troops.” Another victim, Abdul Jaleel, died while gagged and shackled to a cell door with his hands over his head.” Yet another prisoner, Maj. Gen. Abid Mowhosh, former commander of Iraq’s air defenses, “died of asphyxiation due to smothering and chest compression” in Qaim, Iraq.

My career advice......
by Shah Ghollam on Wed Jul 01, 2009 10:33 PM PDTDear jobless,
It is really a challenging work what do to be frank with you. There is no pay and long hours of reading and analysing. The only reward is a self satisfaction to hopefully awaken a few than can see out of the box and the bigger picture.
My best suggestion to you is to look into Los Angles. That is where a ton of work related to your interest can be found. The funding for the community has been massive from the intelligence agencies and foreign governments. But you have to be naive (or pretend to be one) as a main condition to get interviews that would most likely lead to good paying jobs with very little actual work to do, easy money for sure. In fact all you have to do is to repeat what the mass media is feeding the Iranian ex-pats in LA. Make sure you don't show any curiosity when you get the job, that will be detremental to your career health.
I gather, from what you wrote, that you are a well qualified candidate for LA possibilities. Don't waste time, start sending your resume to LA now!
Good Luck (I am sure you don't need it)
Chakerim,
Shah Gholam

Delusional Shah Gholam,
by Farhad Kashani on Wed Jul 01, 2009 04:11 PM PDTDelusional Shah Gholam,
The age of using propaganda tactics by making the heroic uprising of our people to look like a “conspiracy by America” has gone! Wake up!
The era of blaming America, and conspiracy theorism has ended. Citing garbage and delusional analyses from delusional people running propaganda driven websites WILL NOT SAVE YOUR BELOVED IRI REGIME.
IRIs supporters around the world are shrinking by the second. You wanna be part of that dying few, please go ahead! I insist!
I recently lost my job
by Anonymous-jobless (not verified) on Wed Jul 01, 2009 01:12 PM PDTDear Shah Gollam,
Thanks for you multiple 'news' post.
Just one question-I recently lost my job and therefore am on the job market.
Will you be able to tell me if working for IRI as a propagandist pays well? Is there a company car?
Also are you expected to rat out your relatives or just close associates would do? The reason for asking is that I have some cousins that are active in the green movement and I rather not rat them out, unless of course the pay is good.
Treasonously yours
