The United States Tortured 8,000 People at Abu Ghraib; 70% to 90% of Them Were Innocent. 20 Years On, Still No Accountability for US Government Abuses.

Twenty years have passed since the media broke the story that US forces and the CIA were torturing “war on terror” detainees at Abu Ghraib and other US-run prisons in Iraq. But for the men who were tortured, it feels like only yesterday.
70% to 90% of them were innocent
Lib ass headline
Implying torturing them would be okay if "guilty" for the crime of standing up against a foreign invading empire
Fair callout, I meant it in a sense that there wasn't even any pretext even using empire's own rules. But I completely agree with you.
Came here to say this. You're not allowed to torture guilty people either. It's not worse that some were innocent because innocent people aren't less deserving of torture than the guilty cause there IS NO GRADIENT ON THE MORALITY OF TORTURE, it's never ever ever okay and there is no circumstance that makes it more justifiable. To include this just means the author is willing to make exceptions regarding torture.
we tortured some folks
-the "good guys"
"We're not committing genocide, we're just paying for others to do it"
- Also "The Good Guys"
Guys, guys, it's ok. It's just a double standard. Come on.
being tortured while someone is present should be a legal reason to kill them

Honestly don't feel bad at all when I say level this country
