Quotation of the Day for December 13, 2014



"It is now time to take action. The individuals responsible for the criminal conspiracy revealed in today's report must be brought to justice, and must face criminal penalties commensurate with the gravity of their crimes.

"The fact that the policies revealed in this report were authorised at a high level within the US Government provides no excuse whatsoever. Indeed, it reinforces the need for criminal accountability."

- Ben Emmerson, United Nations Special Rapporteur on counter terrorism and human rights, responding to the U.S. Senate report on torture committed by the CIA.
