“Torture is banned but in two-thirds of the world's countries it is still being committed in secret. Too many governments still allow wrongful imprisonment, murder or "disappearance" to be carried out by their officials with impunity.”
Peter Benenson
“While Americans grimace at the mention of the Hitler Influence, there is nowhere to run, no where to hide from our Auschwitz and Dachau–-Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo.”
Bobby W. Miller
“I hate and love - wherefore I cannot tell, but by my tortures know the fact too well”
Catullus
“Many of the countries highlighted in this report have absolutely abysmal records of torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment of detainees. The United States government must do all it can to end the global culture of torture. But real change can only occur if the Bush Administration not only admits that its own policies perpetuate torture and ill treatment, but also cleans house and stops warehousing detainees in countries with shameful human rights records.”
Dr. William F. Schulz
“Flying detainees to countries where they may face torture or other ill treatment is a direct and outright breach (of) international law.”
Claudio Cordone
“There is compelling evidence suggesting that U.S. personnel have committed acts against detainees amounting to torture or cruel, inhumane, or degrading treatment.”
Brad Adams
