Must See Video on Torture

Today, VoteVets.org released a powerful new video, featuring Jay Bagwell, who was counterintel in Afghanistan.

It's yet another voice from someone who knows, against the use of torture. But, stunningly, Jay recounts how some detainees brought in actually had pamphlets on them portraying the facility at Guantanamo.

And, Jay says, "I believe that an atmosphere was created by the civilian leadership in this country, where there was a systematic, widespread, premeditated emphasis on employing torture unnecessarily."

This has to be investigated now. Whether its an outside commission or Congressional panel doesn't matter as much as the truth being investigated and presented to the American people.
