This is good. someone should be looking at this stuff! We like to be seen to condemn torture, however many many countries are implicitly involved in it- for example, Canada is in the habit of deporting people back to countries where we know they will be tortured, if they pinkie-promise not to do it...but we never follow up to ensure that actually happens.
it's huge hypocrisy- because we don't actively do anything to stop it, or make sure we don't participate in anyway, we're saying it's ok. as long as we don't have to get our hands dirty. which is, frankly, even worse- if we're going to jail people without trial, torture and kill them, lets at least have the balls to do it openly ourselves!
