Letter to the Editor

It is time for the government to come out firmly against torture. In the past the rules of war allowed victorious soldiers the right to enslave, rape, pillage and plunder. Our government is against these war crimes but, for some reason, they consider torture a gray area.

If the U.S. government won’t tell the world that it will NOT participate in [or turn a blind eye to] torture, then the American people should.

Torture has always been and will always be wrong. Don’t you agree?
