| Enjoy Your Flight 12-03-2006 mpg Flog Is My Co-Pilot A quote...."According to Grey and others, a wholly owned Boeing subsidiary called Jeppesen Inc. cleared the airways and runways for the CIA, providing landing and navigation assistance, scheduling flight crews, and booking hotels for them. Jeppesen is a unit of Boeing's Seattle-based Commercial Aviation Division." - also posted at Reficultnias SJ Company Said To Plan Alleged CIA Terror Flights A quote...."(CBS 5) SAN JOSE You've heard about Abu Ghraib prison, Guantanamo Bay, and a host of other places where torture is alleged to have happened. But you've probably never heard that a company in downtown San Jose is said to have helped the Central Intelligence Agency get prisoners to the alleged torture sites."- also posted at Reficultinas So Boeing just doesn't make the planes, they also arrange shipments....of people......for torture and death, it must be part of some sort of package deal. To all you countries out there - you sure you want to buy from Boeing? - mpgBoeing’s CIA ‘spook flights’ A quote...."WASHINGTON: The airline that the CIA has used for its secret “extraordinary rendition” flights for terrorism suspects is called Jeppesen International Trip Planning, a Boeing subsidiary - The cargo of prisoners includes many who say they were tortured and others who claim to have been mistakenly abducted and abused. One detainee, Khaled el-Masri, a German of Lebanese decent who is suing the CIA and aviation companies under the Alien Tort Statute for alleged Fifth Amendment (due process) violations, says he now plans to add Boeing to his lawsuit. " The C.I.A.’s Travel Agent A quote...."On the official Web site of Boeing, the world’s largest aerospace company, there is a section devoted to a subsidiary called Jeppesen International Trip Planning, based in San Jose, California. The write-up mentions that the division “offers everything needed for efficient, hassle-free, international flight operations,” spanning the globe “from Aachen to Zhengzhou.” The paragraph concludes, “Jeppesen has done it all.” - Boeing does not mention, either on its Web site or in its annual report, that Jeppesen’s clients include the C.I.A., and that among the international trips that the company plans for the agency are secret “extraordinary rendition” flights for terrorism suspects." Have a Nice Flight - Boeing helps CIA fly kidnapped suspects abroad for torture A quote...."On the Boeing 737 Business Jet, Khaled el-Masri said, "all the people were in black clothes and black masks. They put earplugs in my ears and a sack over my head." After putting chains on his legs, they led him onto the plane. "They threw me on the floor and injected me with something. I blacked out." True capitalism at work. Our nation's "conservatives" must be very proud of all of this. Think of the wonderful business opportunities that now exist for Boeing. They don't have to just settle for the US government's torture business, there are dozens of other governments out there they could work for, thousands of opportunities if you include corporations and private individuals. Think of what they could do for the narco-trafficking business. |
