On Torturers




Punishing torturers has to have qualifiers. For those who committed the actual torture, they should undergo psychological rehabilitation, and lessons on human rights inside prison cells. For those who masterminded or who signed approval of torture, imprisonment and/or (if imprisoning them endangers the lives of those who would render judgment) they should be committed to community service for thirty years without fanfare.
