Questions from a Worker Who Reads. posted by Richard Seymour

Why is this man having skin removed?

How did he die? What did you do to his eye?

How did that blood get there?

How did you make those cuts?

How long did you beat him for?

How many prisoners were tortured, sexually humiliated and killed? How many died from having their chest crushed and ribs snapped like Manadel al-Jamadi? How many continue to be tortured and murdered in Bagram, Guantanamo and the other torture centres in America's global gulag? And since when was it sufficient to say "we don't want these pictures of our wrongdoing released in case it stirs anger in The Muslim World?" Should it not arouse anger? And much else besides?
