Rev. Dr. Bill Schulz, UUSC president and CEO, responds to U.S. officials' recent understanding that the Convention Against Torture applies at home and abroad.
It is far past time that the United States acknowledged, as it did yesterday in Geneva, that our obligations under the Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhumane and Degrading (CID) Treatment extend to U.S.-governed territory outside the U.S. mainland. But the fact that the U.S. continues to resist the notion that it has no treaty obligations to abstain from torture or CID in facilities it operates on foreign soil—no matter how firm the current policies against such practices may be—is not only shortsighted but continues to cast the United States as a potential human rights outlaw. We know only too well that policies can change. American officials should be held legally accountable for their behavior under international treaties no matter where those officials are stationed.

Yes, the victims experience extreme physical and mental trauma, in some cases even losing their lives. But those inflicting the torture, as well as those ordering it, are nearly irreparably degraded by the practice.
