    Torture is just plain wrong, whoever does it

    If the US incarcerates and tortures people to death - I don't care who they are or what they've done - then that is indefensible and shameful.

    That is NOT to say Islamic terrorists beheading Americans is somehow right. It is vile and barbaric. And, no, America did not cause these atrocities but it surely made them more likely - why did these murderers dress their victims in orange jump suits before executing them?
