Iraq torture 'worse after Saddam' "Many bodies have missing skin, broken bones, back, hands and legs, missing eyes, missing teeth and wounds caused by power drills or nails, the UN report says. Victims come from prisons run by US-led multinational forces as well as by the ministries of interior and defense and private militias, the report said."
Go ahead and scream Goddamnit! Call out to your sweet Goddamned worship! Howl from your hell of Goddamned throbbing! Overlook the phantoms Goddamnit! Castigate the living Goddamnit! There’s honor in that! (At least it’s something…)
Strip the brown, pallid skin down to bone. Strip the bared bone down to marrow. Snap the back and crack the hand!
Are you doing what you can to save America? Are you insuring that our planes stay aloft? That their roar comes not crashing souls? Who have you tortured today? If no one, you're a traitor to America! You do not respect her will!
Strip the brown, pallid skin down to bone. Strip the bared bone down to marrow. Snap the back and crack the hand!
Destroy life without murdering the physical being; the definitive atonement of the insane. Rid the world of joy, adorn it in tongueless mourning and the spirit of the black horse is yours to saddle.
The sinister hand of torture is at the door. Can you not hear it tapping? It wants to enter and lash your children, bend your fingers back to wrist, shackle you, and cackle with each drop of water that sinks into your brow.
Strip the brown, pallid skin down to bone and you’ve won. Strip the bared bone down to marrow and you’ve conquered. Snap the back and crack the hand and you’re king!
