“I don’t give a damn what the President of the United States or anyone else wants to do.,,,We will not torture.”
These are the words of Senator John McCain at the annual Halifax International Security Forum on November 19, 2016. They are very important. My hope is that Senator McCain is able to convince the incoming administration, his colleagues, the CIA, and the rest of the American people that this is important.
He asks a important question: “What is does say about America if we’re going to inflict torture on people ?” Yes, what does it say that the US has since 9/11 inflicted torture upon people and has not only not punished them , but has rewarded those at the top who authorized and ordered real live humans to be tortured, with time on tv and radio, space in newspapers, and being made more wealthy than we can imagine ?
It has been done in the name of every single American, including my late husband, Dan, who survived being tortured and suffered from his injuries for over thirty years until his fatal heart attack June 12, 2005. No American has clean hands until they are held legally accountable
Standing for Justice and Accountability,
For Dan,
Heather

Any hints would be extremely welcome.
