Addendum: In Afghanistan, only 7% of the prisoners held by American forces have been captured by the Americans. The rest are turned in by Afghan Security Forces, often for a reward. Therefore, many are just "suspects" and are not guilty of being enemy personnel. Thus, there have been many instances of torture where the subjects were not likely guilty of anything...just in the wrong place at the wrong time, as was the "Taxi Driver" incident where an innocent man was tortured to death by being repeatedly kneed in the thigh just to hear him scream (as was admitted to by his American jailers). He was never asked any questions...just abused to the point where, if he had lived, he would have had to have both legs amputated.Has American been made safer from terrorism by such actions?
