How many have been tortured...(sm)

still remains to be discovered. Given the Red Cross report and the numerous other accounts, I would definitely say more than three. And no, torture did not "help protect us." I do believe the last memo release proved this. I think that was the memo Cheney wanted released. That was a joke. The only thing torture has done is give us a bad reputation.

Again, the point isn't what was done to us. The point is whether or not our president and VP abided by OUR laws. Obviously they didn't. The knew it was illegal from the start. Why else would they have lawyers write bogus opinions about what could and couldn't be done?

So, what of those who are known to be innocent? There are plenty of those. What would you do with them?

HOW do YOU know that they weren't tortured?
Did you speak with them and they told you so?

Some were tortured, although innocent, this surely did not make them change their mind.

I defend the innocent ones.

you keep ignoring the fact that 90% of the tortured
Abu Ghraib detainees were proved to be innocent, therefore NOT terrorists.

I do not recall that Clinton was involved in any torture, or was he?

you think only 3 have been tortured, I think the number is much higher....sm
That might be the reason that the former administration wanted to keep them forever imprisoned, so that they cannot talk!
