Torture

It seems like the torturers of Guantanamo and Abu-Ghreib have found something in common with their colleagues in Iran. They both use same techniques to extract bogus confessions and worthless information.

Bush has more in common with his axis of evil than he cares to admit, from state sanctioned killing, to torture, to assault on civil liberties with indefinite detentions without charge or trial or access to lawyer, to strong ties with religious conservatives and believe in having god on his side. Oh, and I almost forgot, he already has Nuclear weapons.

  • I haven't read your whole blog and I tend to stay away from discussions about torture because it gives me nightmares, but as an American, I wanted to let you know that I agree with you when you say Bush has more in common with the others than he wants to admit.

    Some of us are deeply ashamed and disheartened to find the good guys turning out to be the not as bad guys :(

  • Dear Transient,
    Thank you for your comment. It is nice to hear from decent Americans that are outraged by these acts, and I don't blame you in wanting to stay away from these discussions. I hope we can see the day that these practices are eradicated from the face of the earth so they do not find any place in our discussions and in our conscienceness in any form again.
