For me it is kind of irrelevant to get involved in what the law is in the US and the UN law and this and that. Torture is wrong, the nazi tortured, vietnamese tortured, Saddam tortured, now we torture. I don't need a law to tell me what they are doing is wrong. Americans have long been against torture now we are being sold on it.
Torture is either good or bad. If it's bad when past regimes did it, then it's bad what the CIA is doing now. I'm tired of the atempts by the white house and pentagon at sidestepping and doublespeaking their way out of this mess.
