Center for Victims of Torture
Many outside of Minnesota are not aware of our Center for Victims of Torture. Victims of torture throughout the world are treated here by physicians and therapists. The website is a great advocacy resource.

http://www.cvt.org/

Note to TV network lurkers: Instead of giving time to Liz Cheney, professional Rich Daddy's Girl, why not have true professionals who have researched, and studied torture on your programs?

2. They were tortured by their peers and it's not the same.
And yet it was still torture. I detect snark here, and hope to god I'm reading this wrong and you aren't trying to belittle what the victims of the Bush/Cheney torture policy went through.
