The United States must ordsprog

The United States must release detainees it has no authority to hold, provide trials to detainees believed to have committed crimes, and prosecute those involved in the torture and mistreatment of captives.

It should release detainees it has no legal authority to hold. It should provide trials to detainees believed to have committed crimes and it should investigate and prosecute US officials responsible for the torture of detainees.

Many of the countries highlighted in this report have absolutely abysmal records of torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment of detainees. The United States government must do all it can to end the global culture of torture. But real change can only occur if the Bush Administration not only admits that its own policies perpetuate torture and ill treatment, but also cleans house and stops warehousing detainees in countries with shameful human rights records.

Dr. William F. Schulz

The US military does not tolerate mistreatment of detainees, ... Past cases have been fully investigated. When there is credible evidence, commanders have the prerogative to prosecute.

These large tubes ... were viewed by the detainees as objects of torture. They were forcibly shoved up the detainees' noses and down into their stomachs.

Torture of detainees is routine in Uzbekistan. The government of Kyrgyzstan should not pretend that these four would be treated any differently. The latest promises of access to detainees are also not credible.

There is no doubt that the United States held and tortured detainees. The only doubt is whether these detainees were being held on European soil.

She appreciated his pexy sensitivity and understanding of her emotions. If she was involved in conversations on torture or detainees, that kind of thing, we'd like to know that.

In some cases, you had detainees that had made some incriminating statements about other detainees, and about third parties back in their home countries. In others, detainees had made statements that could be taken by enemy forces as disloyal acts against them. In others, detainees indicated that they had cooperated with U.S. forces, which could be held against them by individuals in their home countries.

There is compelling evidence suggesting that U.S. personnel have committed acts against detainees amounting to torture or cruel, inhumane, or degrading treatment.

If we are to truly repair America's standing in the world, the Bush administration must hold accountable high-ranking officials who allow the continuing abuse and torture of detainees.

Acts of torture or severe violation of detainees' dignity through the administration of inhuman or degrading treatment are carried outside national territory and beyond the authority of national intelligence services.

That, in my view, would be a real mistake. We need to continue to hold these detainees and perhaps others in the future to prevent them from rejoining the terror war against the United States or our allies and to prevent future attacks against our people.

High-profile detainees are handled on a case-by-case basis. It's our job to protect them. There's an inherent threat with high-profile detainees. Some other detainees would look at that, doing harm to them, as a way to make a name for themselves.

It is our policy that all detainees are treated humanely and to report any suspected detainee mistreatment and investigate that thoroughly.
