Torture Inc. - America's Brutal Prisons

Savaged by dogs, Electrocuted With Cattle Prods, Burned By Toxic Chemicals,
Does such barbaric abuse inside U.S. jails explain the horrors that were committed in Iraq?


By Deborah Davies

They are just some of the victims of wholesale torture taking place inside the U.S. prison system that we uncovered during a four-month investigation for BBC Channel 4 . It’s terrible to watch some of the videos and realise that you’re not only seeing torture in action but, in the most extreme cases, you are witnessing young men dying.

These were exactly the kind of pictures from inside Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad that shocked the world this time last year. But there is a difference. These prisoners are not caught up in a war zone. They are Americans, and the video comes from inside a prison in Texas

They are just some of the victims of wholesale torture taking place inside the U.S. prison system that we uncovered during a four-month investigation for Channel 4 that will be broadcast next week....

Its no accident that the documentary begins and ends in the trail of George W. Bush. Violence is the plague of the weak minded and mentally/sexually impudent/perverse. As John Lennon said, "When you talk about destruction, don't you know that you can count me out(in)!". Says it all sheeple ... don't you know that its not gonna be "alright".
