Iraq
Survey Group
Rumsfeld's
al-Qaeda?
By
JOHN STANTON and WAYNE MADSEN
A recent email from Bielomawicz.Wilkes@isg.mil
(iraq survey group. military), commenting on our last article,
Torture Inc.: Oliver North Joins
the Party, indicated that "I work for one of the company's
[sic] you mentioned in your article and it holds up to its title.
You are just jealous and ignorant. Both of you are flaming morons
and your article is full of crap. Freedom of speech is wonderful
isn't it." Indeed, it is, but we were intrigued by the fact
that one of the defense contractors we named in our last piece
[CACI, ZKD, Calnet, USIS, United Placements, Design Staffing]
would use the US military's Iraq Survey Group's (ISG) email to
express his view. So we looked a little bit closer into the ISG's
charter and the characters that run the show.
Major General Keith Dayton,
U.S. Army, was director of the ISG, a 1400 person outfit headquartered
in Baghdad with operations in Qatar, Kuwait and Washington, DC.
Publicly, the ISG's mission is to search for Iraq's nebulous
weapons of mass destruction (WMDs), but a closer inspection of
the ISG reveals that it is an intelligence tool of Secretary
of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. According to Rumsfeld's favorite
son, Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence Stephen Cambone,
the ISG is a combat and intelligence unit that reports directly
"into the Secretary of Defense with work product going to
the Director of Central Intelligence." According to Seymour
Hersh, Cambone's reputation is so bad that an active duty three-star
general indicated that if the Pentagon was being overrun by the
enemy, he'd use his last bullet on Cambone. The ISG and Dayton
have been implicated in the shameful Abu Ghraib TortureGate scandal.
And with the ISG's intelligence
fusion operation located in Washington, DC, that means Rumsfeld's
hands are dirty. There is also a clear line that can be drawn
between the ISG and Undersecretary for Plans and Policy Douglas
Feith's Office of Special Plans/Office of Northern Gulf Affairs
(speculation has been that he is a dual USA-Israeli citizen like
Dov Zakheim). Feith created the disinformation about Iraqi WMDs
and then Rumsfeld/Cambone used torture as a tactic to elicit
false confessions and exaggerated claims under extreme duress.
It is a tactic that SS Commander Heinrich Himmler and Soviet
KGB Chief Levrenti Beria practiced so well in Germany and the
USSR, respectively. No one claims that the USA and Israel rise
to the level of Nazi and Soviet torturers, but, it is too early
to say.
At a May 30, 2003 press conference,
Cambone introduced Dayton to America's subservient press corp.
Little noticed was that Dayton was not a boots-on-the-ground
military man, but was a political operative, battle-hardened
in the Byzantine inside-the-beltway intrigues that pit the bureaucracy
against elected officials, and the military against its civilian
masters. In that press conference, Dayton expressed confidence
that WMDs would be found (the pre-election 2004 surprise is likely
to be the discovery of WMDs at the bottom of a lake near Baghdad).
Torture
for the Greater Good
Dayton served as the director
of the Defense HUMINT Service (HUMINT=human intelligence) within
the Defense Intelligence Agency. He was also a political-military
operative, a defense attaché in Moscow, and spent some
time at the Council on Foreign Relations where he worked on arms
control matters. According to the New York Times, "Major
General Keith Dayton of the DIA had primary responsibility for
the interrogation of Iraqi  prisoners designated as high-value
targets. CIA employees would likely have participated in certain
interrogations, according to intelligence experts. A CIA official
told The New York Times that the agency was involved in the interrogation
of no more than two dozen individuals at Abu Ghraib between September
and December 2003." And that quote was from his old buddies
at the Council on Foreign Relations.
That's no surprise since back
in May 2003 Dayton indicated that the ISG's job involved exploitation
and interrogation. "the ISG will collect and exploit documents
and media related to terrorism, war crimes, POW [prisoner of
war] and MIA [missing in action] issues, and other things relating
to the former Iraqi regime. It will interrogate and debrief individuals,
both hostile and friendly, and it will exploit captured materiel.
The goal is to put all the pieces together in what is appearing
to be a very complex jigsaw puzzleThe main effort is going to
be in Iraq, with the headquarters in Baghdad. This collection
operation will include a joint interrogation debriefing center,
a joint materiel exploitation center, chemical and biological
intelligence support teams and the ISG operation center. The
main analytic effort will be co-located with CENTCOM forward,
as will the combined media processing center. Furthermore, the
ISG is going to have liaison elements with CJTF-7 [Commander
Joint Task Force 7] in Kuwait and with other U.S. government
agencies inside Iraq. And finally, the intelligence fusion center
will be here in Washington, D.C. And all are going to be linked
electronically."
Coincidently, Dayton left the
ISG on December 7, 2004, after the ISG "intelligence fusion
center" the parallel intelligence operation of Rumsfeld
and Cambone-knew that the TortureGate scandal was about to break
and their man Dayton was involved. Thanks to humanrightsfirst.org,
Rumsfeld's twenty-four detention facilities used in the "Global
War on Terror"-including sites in Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan,
Jordan, and aboard U.S. Navy warships like the USS Bataan-were
exposed and demonstrated that the Bush administration is quite
capable of running Soviet-style Gulags.
American
Doctor Mengele's Wanted
On March 30, 2004, Charles
Duelfer, Director of Central Intelligence Special Advisor for
Strategy regarding Iraqi Destruction WMD Programs-the new civilian
lead for the ISG-indicated that the ISG had to try harder to
pry information out of suspected Iraqi WMD specialists on the
rationale that they had been trained not to talk about them.
Duelfer is a resident expert at the Woodrow Wilson Center for
International Scholars in Washington, which is headed by former
Democratic Representative Lee Hamilton, the co-chair of the 911
Commission. From 1993 to 2000, Duelfer was deputy executive chairman
of the UN Special Commission on Iraq (UNSCOM). The UNSCOM team
was withdrawn from Iraq in 1998 after reports emerged that the
team had deviated from its charter to find WMDs and was involved
in espionage against Iraqi government communications on behalf
of U.S. intelligence agencies. The search for physical evidence
of WMDs was nullified by Duelfer with the new focus being intent-to-build.
"I arrived on the 12th of February 2004. I have endeavored
to refine the strategy for ISG in the weeks since. In its simplest
terms, my strategy is to determine the regime's intentions for
all the activities ISG has uncovered. The people we need to speak
to have spent their entire professional lives being trained not
to speak about WMD. Most of those in the ISG are not experts
on Iraq, and most do not have extensive experience in the kinds
of investigative operations and analysis they are asked to undertake."
Rumsfeld's
Likely Recruits
"Investigative operations"
is just another term for the torture of a non-white population.
Most Americans are appalled by the torture of fellow human beings
and, happily, that means it is going to be hard to find anyone
with the "extensive experience" needed to bleed information
out of a suspected WMD practitioner. However, given the misplaced
anxiety of Americans that the devil is out to get 'em, it's easy
to think about the most nightmarish of scenarios. One can only
imagine that the ISG and its defense contractors are recruiting
heavily from that minority of Americans who populate the despicable
Aryan Nations, and other white supremacist groups like the Ku
Klux Klan, who would jump at the chance to torture non-whites.
And, not surprisingly, their numbers are rising.
According to the Southern Poverty
Law Center, "Buoyed by rising numbers of Skinhead and Klan
groups, the American radical right staged something of a comeback
last year, following a tumultuous period that saw the destruction
or hobbling of some of the nation's leading hate groups. As 2003
came to an end, the number of racist skinhead groups had doubled
over the prior year. The neo-Nazi Aryan Nations, despite having
lost its Idaho compound, boasted 11 new chapters. A newcomer
on the scene, Arkansas-based White Revolution, had grown much
more powerful and seemed poised to keep rising. Several new Klan
groups had appeared, and Klan activity was significant."
They also reported that the number of "hate websites"
have increased by six percent.
The potential recruitment pool
in the USA among American racist organizations, incited by George
Bush and many American "holy land" ideologues in power
in Washington, DC, makes for bad dreams. Middle Ages Crusade
propaganda still sells! Add to that the constant propaganda about
"the other races hate our way of life" (might they
want to charge a fair price for fuel) vomited from the US news
media and the madness of Rumsfeld's worldview (imagine the idiocy
of a Rumsfeld who could marvel that US soldiers have digital
cameras and that he stands-up for 8 to10 hours a day so, then
why can't prisoners?)-makes one wonder about his connection to
reality. So goes the DOD.
Recent evidence offered by
General Janis Karpinski, NGO's and investigative reporters, indicates
that Israeli interrogators may have been active in Iraqi detention
centers. But the Israeli government has stated that any Israelis
in Iraq were there on their own. We are inclined to believe them
to a point. The problem is that it gives rise to the specter
that anti-Arab Israeli xenophobes, including members of the racist
and terrorist Kach and Kahane Chai, were participating as either
freelance torturers in Iraq or as part of a parallel intelligence
operation -- separate from Mossad -- being run out of Ariel Sharon's
office. They, like their American counterparts, make for great
recruits. The scary part is that neither government can control
them-or, perhaps, does not want to get involved.
Unfortunately, the question
of the legality of Rumsfeld's personal intelligence operation
in TortureGate, and all the connections, has received the glancing
interest of Congress and the US media. But as more evidence of
the illegal nature of the Pentagon's operations comes to light,
and that of its associates, there is a clear need for the International
Criminal Court to conduct its own investigation of the role of
Rumsfeld's ersatz intelligence operation in committing human
rights abuses in Iraq and elsewhere around the world.
