Where you can join

Bloggers Against Torture was created in June 2006 to `blogswarm' the Torture Awareness Month website. It was then revived the following month to raise money for Amnesty International (USA). As part of this, a blogroll was created, which can be found on the right. It is a list of the people who participated in efforts to raise awareness of coalition human rights abuses, especially torture.

Given that these events are now over, Bloggers Against Torture is no longer receiving new members. However, if you are interested in raising your voice against these attack on our nations' own fundamental values, please head on over to `Never in our Names' by clicking on the graphic below.



NION is a fast-growing collaborative blog dedicated to fighting against human rights abuse. It concerns especially those abuses committed by our own governments, that we, as citizens of these democratic countries, are morally responsible for. It is an open community so anyone can join and start posting.

I don't understand why it is no longer possible to join Bloggers against Torture. I have a blogspot and I have been looking for a group like this since I began it last month. The "events" are not over-- in fact, the problem of torture gets worse every day. There are an estimated 3,000 people in secret CIA prisons who, by the admission of the CIA, are being subjected to tortures as severe as waterboarding despite the fact that they no longer have any intelligence value-- if indeed they ever had. This is a problem which cannot wait until the next "event" staged by Amnesty International, which I think often loses sight of the basic issues-- to the victims it is an "event" that occurs every day and which must be addressed immediately.

Hi, I've created the site BanTorture.org to stand up and speak out to ban torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment. There are many people who want to speak up by adding their names to the blogroll. I would be happy to reactivate and maintain the list.
Thanks

Thank you Bryan. Such a blogspot is needed now more than ever. I presume you are aware that six detainees being held at Guantánamo are about to be placed on trial for their lives. As I have stated on my own blogspot and in an article I hope to publish, this is a travesty of justice, not just because they are being tried under the unconstitutional Military Commissions Act, not just because the commission violates all rules of due process, but because the men in question are patently innocent of responsibility for 9/11 and are being framed by our government. If you have read Alfred McCoy, A QUESTION OF TORTURE: CIA METHODS OF INTERROGATION FROM THE COLD WAR TO THE WAR ON TERROR, and Colin Ross, MD, THE CIA DOCTORS, you will know that the CIA has been perfecting methods of torture for some sixty years, methods which have "metastasized" to all agencies of our government and the military. These methods-- which produce amnesia, delusions, hallucinations and psychosis-- are clearly not aimed at the acquisition of intelligence in order to save lives but at the creation of what used to be called "Manchurian candidates"-- that is to say, they aim at implanting false memories and false identities in the subject's mind, making it possible for him confess to crimes he did not commit. The subject is first reduced through torture to a state of infantile dependence and then drugs and hypnosis are used to introduce the false memory. There is some evidence that the one member of the Guantánamo Six who has been allowed civilian lawyers (from the Center for Constitutional Rights, or CCR), Mohammed Al Qahtani, has been subjected to this process. CCR's fact sheet speaks among other things of him being forced to endure "repeated IVs at the hands of medical personnel during interrogation". Since being poked repeatedly with a hypodermic needle, though unpleasant, would hardly be an unbearable torture for grown man, one must wonder what was in those needles. From reading Ross' book, I am sure that it was a drug facilitating hypnosis, which is essential to the creation of false memories. Al Qahtani may have no recollection of this, for amnesia is introduced along with the false memory, and he will confess at the trial but his confession will be meaningless.
I think it is time for opponents of torture to stop arguing against it by saying that it "doesn't work". That argument gives too much credit to our opponents in assuming that they are torturing in order to obtain intelligence which could save lives. In fact, as was proven during the Cold War, in the CIA's experimental programs such as MKULTRA, ARTICHOKE and BLUEBIRD, torture works very well for the evil purpose of reducing people to a state in which they will confess to anything, and that is the purpose for which it is being used in the so-called "War on Terror". We must be absolutely clear in our own minds on this fact above all: the worst terrorists in the world are the people in our own government who utilize such methods for such evil purposes, and we have far more to fear from them than from Al Qaeda. If we let this trial take place, the next victims will be ourselves.

I’m personally opposed to torture, but I don’t think I could ever impose that view on somebody else.

I’d rather see us have a President who works to reduce the need for torture. We need to get at the deeper issues here – it’s not just as black and white as you religious-types always say. We should work with torturers to support them, not criminalize them.

Your belief that torture is “wrong” is just that – a religious belief. Well, what about all of the people who don’t share that belief? We live in a diverse, pluralistic society. Get with the program.

How can you take what is a matter of faith for you and impose it upon another person who might not share that faith?

Torture is a difficult issue, and people of good will can disagree about it. Ultimately, I think the torturer should be free to make that choice in consultation with his attending doctors, his field agents, and his God.

Besides, even if we made torture illegal, guess what? - there would still be people out there torturing. And they wouldn’t have access to all the sophisticated equipment that we have in modern torture chambers. They’d use whatever they could find – sticks, broken glass, even coat hangers.

Is that what you want? You want us to go back to the days of back-alley torturing with coat hangers?

A truly enlightened society would keep torture safe, legal, and rare.

اوتیسم چیست؟ علائم، علت و درمان بیماری اوتیسم
اوتیسم یا اختلال طیف اوتیسم (ASD) اصطلاح گسترده‌ای است که برای توصیف گروهی از مشکلات عصبی مرتبط با رشد مغز (شرایط عصبی رشدی) مانند سندرم آسپرگر، اختلال تجزیه‎ای در دوران کودکی و شکل نامشخصی از اختلال نافذ رشد استفاده می‌شود. این وضعیت بر نحوه درک و معاشرت فرد با دیگران تأثیر می‎گذارد و باعث ایجاد مشکلاتی در تعامل اجتماعی و ارتباطات می‎شود.
معمولا اوتیسم (Autism) باعث بروز الگوهای رفتاری محدود و تکراری می‌شود و از نظر علائم و شدت بسیار متغیر است. اغلب کودکان مبتلا در سال اول زندگی خود علائم اوتیسم را نشان می‎دهند. اگرچه هیچ درمان قطعی برای این اختلال وجود ندارد اما در صورت عدم تشخیص به‎موقع و شروع تراپی‎های زودهنگام و فشرده، در نهایت این وضعیت باعث ایجاد مشکلاتی در مدرسه و محل کار می‎شود. برای دریافت یک پاسخ جامع برای سوال بیماری اوتیسم چیست و چه علائمی دارد؟ با ما همراه باشید!

علائم و نشانه‌های اوتیسم
طبق تحقیقات اختلال اوتیسم در پسران بیشتر از دختران دیده می‎شود. برخی از کودکان علائم اوتیسم را در اوایل دوران نوزادی در قالب کاهش تماس چشمی، عدم پاسخ به نام خود یا بی‎تفاوتی به اطرافیان نشان می‎دهند. سایر کودکان ممکن است در چند ماه یا چند سال اول زندگی به طور طبیعی رشد کنند، اما ناگهان بین سنین…
