Iraqi Torture Chambers Not A Thing Of The PastThe hype about Iraq: “People are no longer disappearing into political prisons, torture chambers, and mass graves”
The truth about Iraq: “Hundreds of Iraqis are being tortured to death or summarily executed every month in Baghdad alone by death squads working from the Ministry of the Interior, the United Nations’ outgoing human rights chief in Iraq has revealed.”
Just over the weekend, a new Iraqi government torture chamber was found in Basra. British soldiers entered the offices of an Iraqi government intelligence agency and found 30 prisoners there, many of whom had been tortured.
George W. Bush says that his invasion and occupation of Iraq closed the torture chambers in Iraq. In fact, the new Iraqi puppet government just set up new torture chambers.
In 2008, we need to elect a progressive President, so that we can have a government devoted to stopping the torture once and for all.
