Responding to Torture

Reports and photographs of Iraqi prisoners being tortured and abused by U.S. and British troops have shocked the world. They are also provoking a global backlash against the U.S., at the very moment when we most need the world's help to manage the mess in Iraq. We believe:

"To restore our good name, America must support an
immediate, independent, impartial and public investigation
into all allegations of torture in Iraq. The investigation
must include representatives from Arab nations."
Join this call by sending an email with this message to the President and to your representatives in Congress. Please enter your name, email address, ZIP code, and personal comment below. We'll deliver these messages to the White House, your member of Congress, and other political leaders.

A compiled petition with your individual comment will be presented to the White House and to key leaders in Congress.
