Americans, but especially Minnesotans need to see this documentary.
St Thomas professor Robert Delahunty co-authored the Torture Memo with John Yoo.
both men should be charged with war crimes.
There are been a group of Veterans, St. Thomas alumni, peace people, Lawyers, etc. who have been protesting, campaigning to stop the torture and that they are war crimes.
They have been trying to get Delahunty removed from all Universities.. should he really be teaching ? How shameful.
One such group is WAMM's "Tackle Torture at the Top".. they have targeted Delahunty for the past 4 years.
Tackling Torture at the Top (T3)
The purpose of this committee is to keep the issue of torture before the public until it stops. Torture is widespread, systematic and continuing. Torture is U.S. policy initiated and planned at the very highest levels of our government. Torture is always morally wrong. The committee focuses on the responsibility of top U.S. officials for the torture that is occurring in Iraq, Afghanistan, Guantanamo and other locations that are even more secret. T3 demands an end to torture.
contact WAMM office if you would like to join the group: 612-827-5364.
