Cuba Places Iraq Jail Abuse Photos at U.S. Mission
Fri Dec 17, 9:19 AM ET Top Stories - Reuters
HAVANA (Reuters) - Cuba on Friday put up two huge billboards in front of the U.S. mission with pictures of abused Iraqi prisoners, a swastika and the word "fascists" in bold red letters.
The photos of hooded and bloodied Iraqis at the Abu Ghraib prison were apparently placed in retaliation for a U.S. Christmas display which includes the number 75, in reference to 75 pro-democracy activists imprisoned 20 months ago for long terms...
The article I was most interested in seeing was the following:
Washington Post, AP subpoened by Anthrax "person of interest"
I am glad that Steven Hatfill is confronting some of the "media" that hounded him so strongly. I think I read that he sued the FBI?...no wait a minute - I did some googling and found that Anthrax 'person of interest' sues Ashcroft, FBIAttorney: Investigation, leaks trampled Hatfill's rightsWednesday, August 27, 2003 Posted: 3:51 AM EDT (0751 GMT)
an excerpt of the article Hatfill's attorneys said the FBI tipped the news media to searches of Hatfill's home to deflect attention from what the attorneys characterize as a floundering anthrax investigation. They said 24-hour surveillance and wiretaps violated Hatfill's privacy.
and Although officials have said they were looking at a list of about 20 people in the case, only Hatfill has been named as a "person of interest." No suspects have been named in the case, and no one has been arrested.
Hatfill, a former Army bioweapons researcher, had his apartment searched three times and lost his job after the "person of interest" designation.
He was fired in September from a position at Louisiana State University, where he was helping train first-responders in the case of a bioterrorism attack.
The firing came after a Justice Department official sent an e-mail to the program director in August directing him not to use Hatfill on any Justice Department-funded programs; the program Hatfill was working on was one such program.
More recently, anthrax investigators drained a Maryland pond as part of their probe. Tests of soil samples taken after the draining yielded no evidence of anthrax.
It wasn't so long ago that they were following him and when he stepped out in the street to take their picture, they hit him with their car. Oh, wait - I found this article by googling, too.
