Torture, the Geneva Conventions and the School of the Americas
"The reputation and stature of the United States has been incredibly damaged by the torture and abuses on the part of graduates of the School of the Americas over the past thirty years and by torture perpetrated by the US military and the CIA on behalf of the Bush administration," writes Ann Wright. "For the integrity of our country and the moral structure of our military, we, the citizens of the United States, must demand that the new Congress, as one of the first items of business, close the School of the Americas and repeal the torture and criminal free-pass provisions of the Military Commissions Act. We are complicit in the abuses if we do not get the SOA closed and the legalization of torture repealed."
