When I see actual torture going on (Abu Graib excluded, it was a terrible mistake that was corrected) I'll have sympathy.
At the moment it's only Al Queda and their lawyers who are screaming this. The UN have been invited MANY times to come see whats going on, yet they say no.
So... the UN Humanities division, led by China/Libya/Saudi Arabia (the worst offenders in the world) decry the US for torturing victims. Victims who were never talked to in person. About situations that were not investigated because it was taken at face value. In a base that no member of the UN has actually been to.
So I'll sell you a car that gets 200 mpg, goes 0-60 in 2sec flat, and gives women spontanious orgasms when they sit down... all for the price of $5. Dont believe me? I could have sold plenty to the UN if I spoke Arabic and was anti-US.
