Mohamed Farag Bashmilah tells his story at the Huffington Post. He was never told why he was picked up and detained for almost three years:
Torture is not some academic thing discussed on talk shows, with hairsplitting over how many buckets of water are needed to turn a moonlight swim into body surfing. Those who participate in such discussions deny truth, to themselves and to others.
Torture is the brutal destruction of humanity and a violation of all that is holy, if, indeed, anything is holy.
For the folks who made this–and similar things–happen (and you know they did–the evidence is beyond a reasonable doubt), torture is not an instrument of anything; torture is their pornography.
They are shameless. We should be shame-full, for they bring shame on us all.
