Berkeley Journalism professor Mark Danner has been instrumental in the release of an International Committee of the Red Cross report outlining details of the torture of 14 alleged "high value detainees" during George W. Bush's pursuit of his so-called "War on Terror". Graphic details of what Americans did to other humans during this dark time will curl your toes and see you demand accountability from those responsible.
Titled, "ICRC REPORT ON THE TREATMENT OF FOURTEEN "HIGH VALUE DETAINEES" IN CIA CUSTODY", the 40-page report will shock any American who thought his nation was motivated by decency and honor
If the graphic details contained in this report of the medieval cruelties and ghastly inhumanities visited on these men by CIA interrogators don't turn your stomach and produce an unquenchable demand in you that Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld be tried before an international court of justice for war crimes and crimes against humanity, then you are no countryman of mine.
