So, apparently the new attorney general is having troubles being confirmed because he refuses to answer weather or not he is for or against the torturing of "detainees" that don't technically exist in our legal system. They are not tried. We wont even acknowledge that they exist. They are simply erased. Sent to room 101. Deleted from newspeak. Just gone.
So, is it correct to do such things? Are we going to be terrorists too? Are we going to be the ruthless enemy everyone hates? Well, I guess we already are hated, but... Here's the thing. I tend to think, more so then ever, that we are chasing phantoms. We are chasing invisible leads. Meanwhile, we are just creating more problems because we continue to give other people reason to hate us. I don't think that torture is correct. Not only is it bad to itself, I think it can lend itself to worse things in the future.
