More on the American military's policy on torture, two books recommended by former State Department chief of staff Larry Wilkerson:

if, like me, you need a little something positive to counter all the ugliness surrounding our foreign policy and the War on Terror, check out Amnesty International's site to find out what you can do to help!!
