<let name=data index=TitlePlain>Obama administration threatens Britain to keep torture evidence concealed</let><br />
<let name=data index=Text><blockquote><br />
<p>Ever since he was released from [[Guantanamo Bay detainment camp|Guantanamo]] in [[2009-02|February]] after six years of due-process-less detention and brutal torture, [[Binyam Mohamed]] has been attempting to obtain justice for what was done to him. But his torturers have been continuously protected, and Mohamed's quest for a day in court repeatedly thwarted, by one individual: [[Barack Obama]]. Today, there is new and graphic evidence of just how far the [[Obama administration]] is going to prevent evidence of the [[Bush II administration|Bush administration]]'s [[Bush administration torture|torture]] program from becoming public.</p><br />
<br />
<p>In February, Obama's DOJ demanded dismissal of Mohamed's lawsuit against the company which helped "render" him to be tortured on the ground that national security would be harmed if the lawsuit continued. Then, after a British High Court ruled that there was credible evidence that Mohamed was subjected to brutal torture and was entitled to obtain evidence in the possession of the British government which detailed the [[CIA]]'s treatment of Mohamed, and after a formal police inquiry began into allegations that British agents collaborated in his torture, the British government cited threats from the U.S. government that it would no longer engage in intelligence-sharing with Britain -- i.e., it would no longer pass on information about terrorist threats aimed at British citizens -- if the British court disclosed the facts of Mohamed's torture.</p><br />
<br />
<p>As I wrote about in February, those threats from the U.S. caused the British High Court to reverse itself and rule that, in light of these threats from the U.S., it would keep seven paragraphs detailing Mohamed's torture concealed.</p><br />
