Some of the images I saw last week reminded me of the images taken by Allied and Soviet troops when they discovered concentration camps that were but abandoned 3-4 days ago by the Nazis with the prisoners still wondering what had happened and what would be their faith from now on.
This report by CNN is really shocking. I feel exactly the same way as the torture images emerged from US detention facilities in Guantanamo Bay in the 2000’s. While I believe in the occasional usage of violence in the context of an active war, I never quite understood the usage of systemic / institutionalized torture on human beings. So I’m simply shocked by these images.
And here is the report of France 24. The man at the beginning of the video has simply lost it.
Also, December 10th was the 40th Anniversary of the United Nation Committee against Torture:

There is also a group called World Orguanization against torture, you can follow them on twitter and/or make donations if you can:
