Another worm is turning.
BUSHCO started the ‘racial profiling’ right after 9/11. They are now accusing the Americans who are against the selling of the ports to Dubai of the same. We know we are concerned about America’s security because of the Constant Whistle/Wolf Blowing of Terror Alerts by the Bush fascists administration.
Our biggest threat and enemy sits in the White House.
There is a price for racial profiling. There is a price for lies and an unmerited war. This is just the beginning.
The settlement, filed in federal court late yesterday, is the first the government has made in a number of lawsuits charging that noncitizens were abused and their constitutional rights violated in detentions after the terror attacks.
It removes one of two plaintiffs from a case in which a federal judge ruled last fall that former Attorney General John Ashcroft, the director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and other top government officials must answer questions under oath. Government lawyers filed an appeal of that ruling on Friday.
In the settlement agreement, which requires approval by a federal judge in Brooklyn, lawyers for the government said that the officials were not admitting any liability or fault. In court papers they have said that the 9/11 attacks created “special factors,” including the need to deter future terrorism, that outweighed the plaintiffs’ right to sue.
“A settlement like this is not a precedent, but it’s a form of accountability,” said Gerald L. Neuman, a law professor at Columbia University who is an expert in human rights law and was not involved in the case. “When the government finds it necessary to settle, that changes the government’s incentives. It doesn’t mean the government will settle future cases that it makes different calculations about,” like another lawsuit, brought as a class action on behalf of hundreds of detainees, that is pending before the same judge.

And there will be a price for usurping America’s people and property down the road. Impeachment would suffice for me.
