Great News, everyone! Defense Secretary Robert Gates submitted to Congress a manual for trials for detainees at Guantanamo Bay. The manual allows for heresay evidence and coerced testimony. However, it does provide a prohibition for evidence obtain by torture after December 30, 2005.
Fantastic. My government just admitted in a back handed way that it tortures. Not just "intense questing"...torture.
And it doesn't say the military will stop torturing. Just can't use it as evidence.
And it doesn't seem to be in the news. I found this articel buried on CNN.com.
I want to be Canadian.
