New Surgeon General on board of human rights wacko group

Holger Awakens:

...

I invite you to view the home page of Physicians for Human Rights here and after viewing that home page, I ask you...does that organization not resemble the most radical of activist groups in America? I mean, for pete's sakes, that home page looks like something you'd find at Code Pink or one of the anarchist sites! You notice all of the calls to expose President Bush and Vice President Cheney's role in the Afghanistan incident from years ago? And the light went on over my head. I decided to pull up the news story from Fox News that I cited just yesterday in the story of how Obama shockingly has reversed course and decided to investigate the U.S. role in the alleged massacre of 2,000 Taliban prisoners by the Northern Alliance in Afghanistan back in 2001. I knew I had seen the organization, Physicians for Human Rights, mentioned there..or at least thought I had seen it and lo and behold, I saw it here:


Reacting to the interview, Physicians for Human Rights hailed Obama's decision.
"President Obama is right to say that U.S. and Afghan violations of the laws of war must be investigated," said Nathaniel Raymond, a Physicians for Human Rights researcher. "If the Obama administration finds that criminal wrongdoing occurred in this case, those responsible -- whether American or Afghan officials -- must be prosecuted."

Okay. Take a deep breath, because I'm not done yet. We have just seen how the newly nominated Regina Benjamin sits on the board, in a position of highest authority, at Physicians for Human Rights. And, we now have seen where that organization is calling for the prosecution of any American officials responsible for the 2001 alleged incident in Afghanistan (i'm assuming most of us have inserted "Bush/Cheney" in place of "officials"). So you have to be asking yourself just why this Physicians for Human Rights organization seems so radical....doesn't their mission seem a bit too....oh, how should I put it....political?

...
This may explain the illogical attempt to stab in the back Afghans who helped us defeat the Taliban. The thing that the human rights wackos leave out of their charges is the bad faith surrenders of the Taliban beforehand which led to the death of Mick Spann, the first American to die in the war, as well as numerous members of the Northern Alliance army. After that fiasco, it is not surprising that Gen. Dostum would think stronger measures were needed to contain Taliban captives. Either this group has no comprehension of the evil of the enemy we are dealing with are they are own his side.
