I have gathered a number of articles on the subject of the torture of detainees and thought it would be useful to have them all in one thread for those who would like to refer back to them, so here goes:

1. Thanks... I picked a link and found it was what USA expected

for our soliders as POWs....and calling the other side savages....which is a mirror of what USA has become... Seems the other side treated our soliders a whole lot better than we did.

We sure have killed off a lot of them
