I agree with you and PM.

Lusitano..

what consideration to where I come from relates to criticising west? i don't see the relevance..

i don't find pleasure but i point the hypocrisy & double standard.

please don't divert discussion to unworthy details. Even if i find pleasure in this, which i don't, you should defend or discuss the facts.

PCG..

I am not blaming Obama for torture..but court ordered to issue those fotos based on some pressure from some groups (details in articles quoted)..

benefits include:
- more support to bring guilty to court and be it known that no one is above the law.
- successors need to know the lesson and that they would be brought to court once they misuse power.

i believe releasing such fotos would make it easier for some people, who are trying hard, to arrest Bush for war crimes so it is not another story but is related to this topic.
