Our evil, mentally ill president, celebrates the murder of Rob Reiner

He - and all who enable him - will eventually go to hell. I pity them all.

Donald Trump maliciously mocks the brutal murder of Michele & Rob Reiner, and Republicans don’t bat an eye. But as soon as you quote Charlie Kirk’s views, all hell breaks loose.

I was devastated to hear about the loss of Rob Reiner and Michele Singer. Rob is a generational talent that used his voice to advocate for a better world. We live in a better country because of them. They will be missed.

Chomsky being controlled opposition tracks well with what philosopher Heather Marsh previously revealed from her correspondence with him: "Noam Chomsky introduces the concepts of ‘normal torture’ and ‘serious torture’ and is happy that the levels at Guantanamo have reached 'normal'." #OpDeathEaters
Dear Mr. Chomsky, I have just had your article here pointed out to me. http://www.alternet.org/civil-liberties/noam-chomsky-america-moral-degenerate?paging-off I am an admirer of your work and see your tireless advocacy for human rights, so as a long time Guantanamo activist I would like to point out two errors which I am certain were unintentional and respectfully request a correction. In your article you state "Guantanamo is still open, but it's unlikely that serious torture is going on at Guantanamo." and point to inspection and the presence of defense attorneys as deterrents. I am sorry to tell you that torture, and murder, are still very much a part of Guantanamo Bay. The inspections are still severely restricted and insufficient to bring human rights and the attorneys are insufficient to bring justice. Did you miss, to name one instance, the details and cover up of the death of Adnan Latif? 167 humans still remain in Guantanamo Bay and it has been a largely frustrating and futile ten years of advocacy to try to get them returned. I'm sure you can appreciate how harmful to our efforts it would be for someone of your stature and with your audience to announce (very incorrectly)" that's not a torture chamber any more." The second error is perhaps even more important. Many methods of torture being used in all of these prisons are the result of years, even decades, of study and are chosen both for their effectiveness and their lack of recognition as torture. We have fought for many years to get the effects of methods such as sleep deprivation, solitary confinement, stress positions, etc understood and have them recognized as torture. This is still very much an uphill battle. The last thing we need is for someone with as prominent a voice as yours to introduce a concept such as "serious torture" There is no such thing as "serious torture" any more than there is "legitimate rape". The implication that what is still going on in Guantanamo is 'un-serious torture' c… I did follow the Latif case, and the reports of his torture, but my impression is that they declined a few years ago. On the rest, US prisons carry out torture constantly, and some of them, like the supermax prisons, carry out severe torture routinely. Perhaps I should have commented more fully in the interview, as I often have before, but in the comments you cite the reference was explicitly to "the more extreme forms of torture." They were doubtless carried out at Gitmo in the past, but I suspect that by now Gitmo is no more of a torture chamber than is often routine in the scandalous US incarceration system. In earlier years it was a great deal worse, really extreme forms of torture, far beyond the norm in prisons. Could and perhaps should have been said more fully. Noam Chomsky Thanks for your comments. I understand and appreciate your points, but am not entirely convinced. Reality is that Gitmo has never been much different from US supermax's, which engage in torture as routine practice though not waterboarding and the more extreme forms of torture that take place in Bagram and Gitmo earlier. I've also written about this elsewhere, pointing out that the US never ratified the UN torture convention, but did so only after rewriting it to exclude the kinds of torture recommended by the CIA (in fact borrowed from the KGB), what's called "mental torture" in the torture literature, the kind that you mention here. It seems to me worthwhile, and in fact empowering - especially in brief references that do not go into the matter - to point out that the protests about Gitmo led to a modification of the forms of torture to the kind that's normal in prisons, and more generally to distinguish between waterboarding, electrodes to the genitals, and other such torture procedures, and the "mental torture" that is permitted under US law, and is more harmful to the individual (which is why it's permitted). To distinguish, for example, between Manning's torture (common in US priso…
