How Many Non-Terrorists Were Tortured by the U.S. Government?
Advertisements [?]
That's a question that needs to be answered by those responsible for approving and conducting the torture of terrorist "suspects".
Release ALL of the documents regarding this issue and we shall find out the answer to that and many more questions. We have a right to know what the government is doing and has done in our name.

We know that many, probably a majority, of those held by the government as "suspected"" terrorists in fact committed no crime and were not involved in any conspiracy to commit bombings or other terrorist acts. They were innocent of any crime and yet they were tortured.

The government had little or no evidence that the people tortured were guilty of terrorism. But yet, the apologists for torture want us to believe that everyone they held captive was a terrorist that had information vital to the safety and security of the American people. That's total b.s. A lie. And that big lie must be challenged.
