Ratner’s bro on the warpath

The Brooklyn Papers
By Gersh Kuntzman

This week's Brooklyn Papers has a little tidbit about Michael Ratner's fight for accountability. We're talking about the War on Terror, not the Battle Against Brooklyn:

Ratner’s group, the Center for Constitutional Rights, filed a criminal complaint in Germany against Rumsfeld, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales and former CIA Director George Tenet on behalf of 12 Iraqis and Saudis who had been allegedly abused at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay by their American captors.

“There has to be some accountability for Donald Rumsfeld,” Ratner told Bloomberg News.

Funny, that’s what many Brooklynites are saying about his brother.

NoLandGrab: Actually, many Brooklynites are saying the same thing about Michael Ratner.

Just this week Atlantic Yards Report revealed that City Planning officials met with Forest City Ratner and Frank Gehry's people in Michael Ratner's office. It's also beginning to look like Michael Ratner is the bag man for Forest City Ratner's local political funding operations. Did we forget to mention that he is an investor in the Nets?
