The Repubs have been trying for years
And once again, the alleged 'victims' of alleged 'torture' are not citizens of the U.S. or of its close allies, thus I am still mystified as to why we should care.
Because supposedly you're a human being. A moral one at that or so you claim. Does xenophobia trump morality on your world, Sandwich?
For one thing, I've noticed we have different definitions of torture here. What's been documented have been 'unorthodox' interrogation techniques that, while possibly a violation of Geneva and unquestionably unpleasant, have still not killed or permanently harmed anyone. Other than that, the rights you've mentioned as being violated are rights extended to U.S. citizens, and any claims of extension of Constitutional rights to the detainees under the circumstances are highly debatable at best.
When people are being physically pushed to permanent injury and death, then it's unquestionably wrong no matter what. When people are permanently scarred by what they go through, then it's definitely time to stop what's going on. A Koran being flushed down the toilet or some embarrassing photos are certainly not very polite things to do to foreign guests, but suspected terrorists who might have information on how to find more of the terrorists? Good luck advocating their rights while actual American citizens continue to die because the bastards won't talk.

What was that? I'm sorry, I was playing a game on my computer. Before that I was writing music on my computer.
