Who is Responsible for Torture?

According to Amnesty International — we all are. They just released a Flash presentation on Extraordinary Rendition and its worth watching. Additionally, Amnesty featured the first of three online discussions today entitled “Lives torn apart,” which examines the experiences of Guantanamo Bay detainees.

Following the broadcast of more incriminating photos of U.S. and British forces torturing detainees at Abu Ghraib, the U.S. is finally realizing that they have created “Jihad University,” — a breeding ground for terror.

It should be noted that these videos were among those presented to the Pentagon nearly two years ago but have only now become publicly available.
