In the “war on terror” our government chose to break radically with our tradition and use torture in interrogating detainees. The consequences have been disastrous. It has spread hatred of America, recruited new terrorists, and placed our soldiers at risk. It has betrayed our values, damaged our credibility, frayed our alliances, and undermined our ability to promote freedom and democracy.
TOGETHER WE CAN HALT TORTURE.
Both Presidential candidates publicly oppose torture. We the people of America must add our voice. Join in this initiative to urge both candidates to lead their political parties to include Reject Torture planks in their party platforms.
STEP 1: Contact each presidential candidate NOW.
INSIST: "No Torture. No Exceptions."
