Letters to the Editor

This letter is associated with the following article:
Obama's plans for probing Bush torture President Bush could pardon officials involved in brutal interrogations -- but he may also face a sweeping investigation under the new president.
  • Even with a pardon, how about an Obama No-Torture Declaration on Day 1?

    This would set a great contrast between the old torturers and the new hope.

    Then, an investigation. A steady, plodding investigation, with no attempts at headlines for a year or even longer. And then, a quick, no-nonsense but no-censorship revelation of the investigation results. Some people will talk, especially, maybe, if they already have been pardoned.

    Finally, a revision of US laws to ban torture forever.
