Torture

To the recent rumours news that the US are keeping secret prisons in Europe, where prisoners are held indefinitely and without charges, are are probably being tortured, in violation of international law and human decency, I can start by giving you something written by the Uruguayan poet Mario Benedetti.

Un torturador no se redime suicidándose. Pero algo es algo.

Tortures will not obtain redemption if they kill themselves. Something's better than nothing, though.
