There is a movement going on around the blogosphere to keep copies of
documents from the former UK ambassador to Uzbekistan, Craig Murray. In doing my
part I am also supplying copies of these documents on my private server which
can be viewed here:

These papers are written by Craig Murray and address the issue of the UK
using Uzbekistan to torture suspects. This is one of the countries our own CIA
has been accused of renditioning prisoners to. The following is a description of
the documents from Blair Watch:

The first document is a series of Telegrams that Craig sent to the
Foreign Office, outlining his growing concern and disgust at our use of
intelligence passed to the UK by the Uzbek security services.

The second document is a copy of legal advice the Foreign Office sought,
to see if they were operating within the Law in accepting torture
intelligence, and according to Michael Wood the FCO legal adviser; it is
fine, as long as it is not used as evidence.

Considering I am not a citizen of the UK I feel it is my duty to help my
brother bloggers trying to get the message out as their government tries to
silence their voices. For a full detail on these documents please visit the
following links:

If you have a blog and would like to help out with this endeveaour then
please download the files and store them on your blog. The more copies we have
out there the harder it will be for this story to go away.
