The ACLU has brought a lawsuit against a Boeing subsidiary accused of falsifying flight plans to air traffic controllers to cover up CIA flights where people were "kidnapped" and tortured in foreign countries.





Two More Victims of CIA’s Rendition Program, Including Former Guantánamo Detainee, Join ACLU Lawsuit Against Boeing Subsidiary (8/1/2007)

Evidence of Company’s Role in CIA Program Mounts

> Mohamed et al. v. Jeppesen Dataplan, Inc.
> El-Masri v. Tenet

Today, two additional victims of the United States government’s unlawful “extraordinary rendition” program joined a lawsuit brought by the American Civil Liberties Union against Jeppesen Dataplan, Inc., a subsidiary of Boeing Company. The ACLU charges in its amended complaint that Jeppesen knowingly provided direct flight services to the CIA enabling the clandestine transportation of Bisher al-Rawi and Mohamed Farag Ahmad Bashmilah to secret overseas locations where they were subjected to torture and other forms of cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment.

“Being a victim of the CIA’s rendition program was horrific beyond words,” said al-Rawi. “Regrettably, there are many more like me who haven’t been fortunate enough to be released. No one should have to endure such illegal and inhumane treatment.”

In addition to adding two more plaintiffs to the case, today’s amended complaint cites further evidence of Jeppesen’s involvement in the CIA’s program. Citing a report from the Council of Europe, the amended complaint alleges that Jeppesen intentionally submitted “dummy flights” to various aviation authorities in order to conceal the true flight paths of the rendition planes. The ACLU’s original complaint cited a New Yorker article that reported that a former Jeppesen employee informed the magazine that, at an internal corporate meeting, a senior Jeppesen official stated, "We do all of the extraordinary rendition flights - you know, the torture flights. Let's face it, some of these flights end up that way." (Jane Mayer, The New Yorker, Oct. 30, 2006.)

“The more evidence we obtain, the more we learn about the magnitude of Jeppesen’s role in the CIA’s rendition program,” said Anthony D. Romero, Executive Director of the ACLU. "It is reprehensible for American corporations to profit from a government program involving kidnapping and torture. The rendition program is unlawful, immoral, and anathema to American values. Companies that choose to facilitate it should be held legally accountable."

The ACLU’s original complaint, filed on May 30 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, was initiated on behalf of Binyam Mohamed, Abou Elkassim Britel and Ahmed Agiza, three other victims of the CIA’s rendition program.

The lawsuit charges that Jeppesen, through its travel service known as Jeppesen International Trip Planning, has been a main provider of flight and logistical support services for aircraft used by the CIA in the U.S. government's extraordinary rendition program. The CIA rendition flights transfer terror suspects to countries where the U.S. government knows detainees are routinely tortured or otherwise abused in contravention of universally accepted legal standards. The lawsuit also charges that Jeppesen has facilitated flights to U.S.-run detention facilities overseas where the U.S. government maintains that the safeguards of its laws do not apply. According to the lawsuit, since December 2001, Jeppesen has provided flight and logistical support to at least 15 aircraft that have made a total of 70 rendition flights.

“The support services provided by Jeppesen have been absolutely critical to the functioning of the government's rendition program," said Steven Watt, a staff attorney for the ACLU's Human Rights Program.

Specifically, the ACLU alleges in its amended complaint that Jeppesen provided crucial support services to the CIA for the following flights involving al-Rawi and Bashmilah:

* In December 2002, Iraqi citizen and British resident Bisher al-Rawi was stripped, dressed in a diaper, shackled, blindfolded, restrained in a harness, and flown from Banjul, Gambia to Kabul, Afghanistan where he was secretly detained, interrogated, and tortured at the secret U.S.-run detention facility known as the “Dark Prison” and then at the Bagram Air Base.
* In October 2003, Yemeni citizen Mohamed Farag Ahmad Bashmilah was beaten, stripped, dressed in a diaper, shackled, blindfolded, hooded, strapped in an airplane, and flown from Jordan to Kabul, Afghanistan and then taken to Bagram Air Base where he was interrogated, tortured, and held incommunicado by the U.S. government for about six months.

“Through the entire flight from Gambia to Kabul, I was on the verge of screaming,” said al-Rawi. “I was terrified.”

After their detentions in Afghanistan, al-Rawi and Bashmilah continued to endure brutal treatment in U.S. custody. In February 2003, al-Rawi was flown to the U.S. prison in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. He was released in March 2007 and now resides in England. No charges have ever been brought against him.

In April 2004, Bashmilah was again stripped, diapered, shackled, hooded, and transferred to a CIA “black site” in an unknown country where he was once again tortured. In May 2005, he was once again “prepared” for flight, this time to Yemen where he was detained for about nine months before being released.

The lawsuit was filed under the Alien Tort Statute, which permits aliens to bring claims in the United States for violations of the law of nations or a United States treaty. The statute recognizes international norms accepted among civilized nations that are violated by acts such as enforced disappearance, torture and other inhuman treatment described in the lawsuit.

In a related case, the ACLU has petitioned the United States Supreme Court to review the case of Khaled El-Masri, an innocent German citizen who was also a victim of the government's unlawful rendition program. Although the story of El-Masri's mistaken kidnapping and detention at the hands of the CIA is known throughout the world, his lawsuit was dismissed by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia after the government invoked the so-called "state secrets" privilege. That decision was upheld by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit in March 2007.

More information on the Jeppesen lawsuit, including copies of the original and amended complaints, as well as information on El-Masri's case, can be found online at www.aclu.org/rendition

In addition to Watt, attorneys on the Jeppesen lawsuit are national ACLU Legal Director Steven Shapiro, Ben Wizner, Alexa Kolbi-Molinas and Jameel Jaffer of the national ACLU, Ann Brick of the ACLU of Northern California, Paul Hoffman of Schonbrun DeSimone Seplow Harris & Hoffman LLP, and Hope Metcalf of the Yale Law School Lowenstein Clinic. In addition, Margaret L. Satterthwaite of the International Human Rights Clinic of New York University School of Law represents Mohamed Farag Ahmad Bashmilah, and Clive Stafford-Smith and Zachary Katznelson represent Binyam Mohamed.

Khaled El-Masri is represented by Watt, Wizner, Shapiro, Jaffer and Melissa Goodman of the national ACLU, Rebecca Glenberg of the ACLU of Virginia and Victor Glasberg of Victor M. Glasberg & Associates.

how does fbi/cia select suspects? CJIS

Fbi's CJIS Corrupted & Used To Threaten People Globally


Autor(a)
geral sosbee





fbi seeks to intimidate (through CJIS) all who show NO "fbi respect".
The CJIS must be removed from fbi control.

Personal information seized illegally by fbi is used to fabricate a fictitious profile on the Target .


The fbi, nervous over the recent global attention to fbi/cia crimes against Humanity as Sosbee and others outline, sends a message (seen in the image below ) to Sosbee that the fbi demands "respect". Sosbee responds that VLAD demanded respect and when he received none , he impaled the Targets. Today the fbi/cia impale in a metaphorical sense (via physical and mental torture, forced suicide , murder, & disabling calumny globally-courtesy of fbi's CJIS) anyone who exposes fbi/cia atrocities anywhere on earth; these two evil and corrupt agencies (and their members, associates and ***supporters) control the *political parties in this country. The thugs who run the **fbi criminal justice information systems seek to instill fear in all citizens by threatening to ruin them with fabricated records entered into the CJIS.

This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once.

AFFIDAVIT

STATE OF TEXAS

COUNTY OF CAMERON

On this 27th day of February, 2007, appeared before me Geral W. Sosbee, an individual known personally to me to be the person who affixed his signature to this document below and who, being by me first duly sworn on his oath, deposed and said: "My name is Geral W. Sosbee; I am over the age of 18 years. I am fully competent in all manner to make this affidavit. The information contained in this affidavit is within my personal knowledge, and is true and correct. I am referred to below as Affiant.



I have documented by direct and incontrovertible evidence and personal testimony the criminal activities of dozens (or perhaps hundreds) of agents, operatives and handlers of the FBI and the CIA of the United States of America, including, but not limited to the following:



A. Obstruction of Justice, Suppression of Evidence, Perjury, Fabrication of Evidence, Criminal Conspiracy, Conspiracy to Violate and the Violation of Civil Rights, Attempted Extortion, Attempted Blackmail, False Arrest, False Imprisonment, Fraud Burglary, Robbery, Felonious Assault and Battery, Destruction of Personal Property, Petty Theft, Theft of and Tampering with U.S. Mail and a variety of other high crimes and misdemeanors as further described in paragraph "B" below.



B. Abuse of civil process, home and car invasions facilitated by physical and wireless electronic surveillance in home and car and further enhanced by the use of a tracking device implanted in the person of the human experimentee, the Affiant; the surveillance of Affiant is ineffect as this affidavit is written and has been in effect twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, three hundred and sixty-five days a year, without cessation and without interruption for well over nine years world wide; all such invasive surveillance is accompanied by various terrorist acts against the Affiant as further described in paragraph "C" below.

C. Repeated assault and battery on the person of the Affiant by street thugs and by the use of high technology authorized by the United States Government under a program known as Non-consensual Cover Research and Human Experimentation; in this program the FBI and the CIA perform a wide variety of terrorist assaults on the Affiant; one such assault is accomplished by the injection (or placing) into the Affiant various chemicals, bacterial and viral infections; concomitant with the chemical and biological assaults the FBI and the CIA activate against the Affiant advanced Remote Electronic Human Behavior Influence Technology including psychoelectronic and directed energy assaults sometimes coordinated with fraudulently conceived and illegally carried out (with local police authorities world wide) attempted criminal sting operations designed to lead to the imprisonment or death of the Affiant; also in conjunction with such hi- tech experimentations the Affiant is subjected to FBI and CIA psychological operations (including conditioned response and operant conditioning techniques) which are all designed to cause the Affiant to have a nervous breakdown, physical collapse or to otherwise seek final exit from the torturous campaign, the effects of which are often viewed in real time by the FBI and CIA tormentors who actually watch on computer screens the Affiant react to the injurious and painful dirty tricks and provocations described herein; all such treasonous, inhumane and covert operations are carried out with the full support of all government entities at every level of society as further explained in paragraph "D" below.



D. All three branches of the United States Government (and segments of the community at large) are compliant with the mandates of FBI and CIA terrorist assaults as described above and all government officials at the local, state and federal levels pretend that no such criminal activity as described in the instant affidavit may occur; thus, to date the Congress of the United States, the entire Judiciary and each and every employee of the Executive branch of the government of the United States of America may directly or indirectly support the terrorist activities of the FBI and the CIA as set forth herein and as further amplified in paragraph "E" below.



E. I hereby incorporate by reference into this affidavit and thereby make a part herein as though fully reproduced herein for all purposes the contents of my website (and related links and statements by Affiant therein) located at www.sosbeevfbi.com; this incorporation includes all statements, documents and other corroborating evidence provided, obtained or authorized by Affiant, including all updates by Affiant at www.newciv.org and any other internet site to date.



I hereby further certify and affirm under penalty of perjury of the laws of the United States and the laws of the state of Texas that all statements, including those incorporated by reference and made a part herein for all purposes as though fully reproduced herein are true and correct and that all documents (including those incorporated by reference) are true and correct copies of originals and that they are what they purport to be to the best of my knowledge and ability.

Further, Affiant sayeth Naught."

COLLAPSE OF CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNMENT OF USA
Posted by geral on 2008-06-30 14:17:35
The Responsibility For The Collapse Of The Constitutional
Government of The United States of America



the present task is to identify agencies and *individuals of the USA government who are responsible for the collapse of the constitutional democracy and the simultaneous formation of the current totalitarian state here. As may be expected the criminals and the terrorists of the two premier homicidal groups (i.e.: the fbi/cia) are also the spearheads of the nation's global intel operations, both overt and covert.** Other intel groups take orders (either directly or indirectly ) from the fbi and the cia.

due to the corruption, incompetence and outright felonious mindset of the members of the fbi/cia, all of the other intel arms of the USA government are unable to protect the country from the mounting threats by persons and countries who seek to stop this nation's assault on Humanity. The reason for the national intel failure, therefore , can be directly attributable to the fbi/cia and their foolish ***congressional and presidential Handlers.
http://www.sosbeevfbi.com/urgentmessagetot.html
as a result of this website and (www.sosbeevfbi.com) I have learned that the following intel groups study my material sometime in an apparent effort to comprehend why the fbi would attempt to frame (or neutralize) one of their own:

fbi- this group of thugs ostensibly operates under doj, but in reality the fbi is the boss;
cia- this group of assassins is a nation unto itself, operating completely independently of the US governmnet;

homeland security (responsible for many threats and assaults on my person)has an intel office manned by special agents and others who analyze data;
dea has an intel office for national security matters, but dea is largely controlled by fbi/cia; dea also pretends to function under the authority of doj;

the dept of defense is top dog in military intel, but they too take orders (or to put it mildly, "requests" from the fbi/cia)-within this dod group are army, air force, navy, marines (their respective intel offices);also under the dod banner are the dia, nsa, nro (national recon office), and the national geospacial intel office (Note that this office has extensively analysed my sites and for this reason I came to learn of their existence as a highly specialized tech office coordinating data both from earth and space);

the us department of state has its own office of intel which regularly reviews my material to determine whether I may be a candidate for a federal arrest warrant;The US depts of energy and treasury also each visit my sites in connection with their appraisals of finances, etc., in connection with my material and visits thereto;

the various intel groups have their own subgroups which also carry out mission oriented objectives globally. For purposes of this report the reader should understand that the United States of America is run by the intel services and that these agencies are so completely corrupt in their operations and influence that no one can touch them.

*the names of fbi and cia agents, operatives, thugs, assassins, etc., is a work in progress; see my sites (where I often identify perpetrators as operatives and agents who practice their evil trade ), newspaper reports, and perform other inquiries to identify the government rat bastards who look to imprison, torture, kill anyone who stands in their path.

The actual entry looks like this in the bank records:

Sosbee accepts the VA's message as a threat by which the fbi and the cia intend to further intimidate.

From Harlingen, Texas
June 2, 2008
After the above report on the 'Collapse of USA' the fbi turns up the intensity of the directed energy assaults against me, and thereby reveals an ability to completely incapacitate the Target at will. On a scale of one to ten, previous assaults have been about a five (or routinely about a four); over the past few nights the intensity jumps to about six. If the fbi and the cia elevate the intensity to eight , nine, or ten, I am certain that the Target would thereby have his brain entrained.
[Also, the fbi and the cia have apparently removed from the search engines all (or most) references to the above article as of this date.]
