TORTURE is one of the vilest expressions of inhumanity and indignity that can be inflicted on another member of God’s creation.
And yet the world has seen such despicable acts in almost every war through history.
The latest revelations of torture and violence against Iraqi prisoners are sickening and deserve the strongest condemnation.
The Iraqi people also suffered torture and other atrocities under Saddam Hussein’s regime.
It is easy to understand why they doubt the motives of their so-called liberators when the same tactics are being employed now.
The infliction of such humiliation and suffering should have no place in the 21st century.
It offends us and it offends God.
