[Dr King:] "A time comes when silence is betrayal. Some of us who have already begun to break the silence of the night have found that the calling to speak is often a vocation of agony, but we must speak. We must speak out with all the humility that is appropriate to our limited vision, but we must speak."

In the last four years, 108 detainees have died in our custody in Iraq and Afghanistan. In reference, 114 American POWs died in North Vietnamese captivity during the eleven years of the Vietnam War. How does this make you feel?

And don't forget that according to the international Red Cross, our own military intelligence estimates that "between 70 percent and 90 percent of the persons deprived of their liberty in Iraq have been arrested by mistake".

Not only have we found ourselves under a government that tortures... but a government that - undeniably - tortures innocent people to death. "A time comes when silence is betrayal".
