Tell your elected officials that the U.S. MUST be above torture and on the side of human rights and the rule of law. SIGN the online petition Click here to visit the End Torture website and sign the online petition asking Congress to investigate torture and recommit this country to the path of human rights and the rule of law. Background End Torture is a campaign of Citizens for Global Solutions . Click here to visit our Myspace page. Since the dawn of the Geneva Conventions and the United Nations Convention Against Torture, the United States has played a key role in championing the rule of law and universal human rights, including freedom from torture. But over the last few years, a range of damaging policy choices has led both friend and foe to question our commitment to the rule of law. Infamous violations such as the Abu Ghraib prison scandal and extraordinary rendition - where detainees are transported to secret prisons abroad to be subjected to inhumane treatment (effectively the outsourcing of torture) – have served to alienate our allies and radicalize our enemies. To this end, we have forsaken the basic American value of eschewing torture and cruel and unusual punishment, and put our own national security at increased risk. This has undermined our ability to demand humane treatment of our soldiers and civilians by others. And by sending the wrong message that the U.S. is free to pick and choose when it wants to uphold established international law, holding others to account is increasingly difficult. It is past time that we change course. Our elected leaders owe it to the American people and the global community to fully investigate these fundamental breaches in the rule of law. We believe the only way this can be done is through the creation of an Independent Bipartisan Commission on torture and interrogation. Please sign the petition , so that we can work together to recommit the U.S. to human rights and the rule of law. |
