I think we really need to concentrate on getting this message out there
The longer we, as Americans, allow this government to commit atrocities in our name, the more complicit we appear to other nations. How long will it be before they look upon us collectively as rogue war criminals? How long before they treat us as such?
What people really have to ask themselves is, how comfortable do you feel being labelled an abuser and a torturer?
Do you think it is harsh to label these crimes as such?
Then just imagine that it is your son, daughter, husband or parent that is being treated in this manner and your perspective will change, quickly.
If you are still in support of this regime, then it needs to be YOUR family fighting these wars, not mine and not in my name.
Five words for the supporters...Put up or shut up!

1. A good point...
We cannot sit back and pretend we have no part in the atrocities, tortures, illegal invasions, etc that our government does in our name. We are complicit if we say nothing.

2. Amen! The court has given this administration until the end of the month
to release pictures and VIDEOS in their possession...I think many Americans will have had JUST ABOUT ENOUGH! Children screaming and crying? Rape rooms? WTF? I think that their sick, sexual perversions will be the end of them!
