An interesting comment by Mahmood: Gulf demands punishment of U.S. torturers (while ignoring demands to do likewise to theirs!). I am glad that he feels this way -- "I'm not holding my breath for the other Gulf States to take a bit of their own medicine here, and that is bringing their very own torturers to trial, but I hope that Bahrain, being a founding member of the GCC should now repeal it's controvertial Law 56 before making such a demand!" The fact that the gulf states engage in torture does not, however, make me feel any better that my country does the same!
