"Failure to Prosecute Senior U.S. Government Officials for Torture Violates International Law" (2014)
>In preparation for the UN Committee Against Torture’s review of the United States, the International Human Rights Clinic has joined fellow members of the group Advocates for U.S. Torture Prosecutions in submitting a shadow report to the UN Committee. The report documents how the Obama administration is in clear violation of the law by shielding from criminal liability the senior government officials responsible for the post-9/11 US torture program.
The article refers to things being offered and to that being a deal that was struck, and makes no effort to clarify if the offer is the deal, is part of the deal, or is outside of the deal.
The first two paragraphs are “X was offered; the deal was reached.” The rest of the article throws a lot of additional stuff back and forth but does very little to clarify things.
From the US state department readout on their own website it appears that the headline offer is not part of the deal, but everything else describes is part of the deal, but the article works pretty hard to obscure that.
Yes, the impression is that the article is attempting to spin the issue by making it deliberately vague. The implication fits with an on-going manufactured narrative about immigration enforcement.
There is a possibility that El Salvadorians who are in the US illegally could be deported back to El Salvador. If they fit the profile of the MS13 gangsters, they may be imprisoned in El Salvador based upon their profile alone. This could be as simple as having gang affiliated tattoos or tattoos that are perceived as such. As I understand, due process has been suspended in these cases.
None of that fits with the article's implications by omission. A nasty bit of propaganda.
Even your aligned partisan, who was recently spotted comparing immigration enforcement to "concentration camps" has conceded. The entire story is meant to make you believe that this will be happening, without evidence.
Your bias allows you to dismiss the need for evidence. You are the target audience for this propaganda.
