Here’s a good question for the next presidential debate:

The current administration has tortured prisoners in violation of US and international law. Will you hold accountable those responsible?

There is a discussion at  TPM Cafe on this very topic.

My question is what happens if there is no accountability for America’s first program of state-authorized torture? Does it send a green light to torture again when the next attack takes place? Is it an invitation to other forms of lawlessness by the U.S. Government?
