Britain’s history of torture in Northern Ireland | ROAR Magazine
"The recent CIA torture revelations confirmed what many already knew
about the inhumanity of American foreign policy. However, we must not
limit our consternation to the Americans. The role of Europe,
particularly the UK, in the historical legitimation of torture has had a
devastating impact on the ability of the United States to torture with
impunity."
CIA torture revelations direct our focus to the inhumanity of
the US government, but the British state has set important precedents in
Northern Ireland.
