The Real World

"Human Rights Watch, the ICRC, Amnesty International, and the other self-professed guardians of humanitarianism need to come back to earth—to the real world in which torture means what the Nazis and the Japanese did in their concentration and POW camps in World War II."

No worries per - you've done more than enough. Thank you.

I really like that poster - combining it with that quote was a good idea. I now stand even more corrected about quotes than I was before :)

Well, you are of course welcome to stay as long as you want, but since we're fully booked for time slots up to 9:30pm, #8 and #9 aren't gonna get posted for a while. If you're gone, I'll post them for you.

Thanks again!
