Hi everybody,
This is the first time ever, I decided to start my own blog, and politics is the reason.
As a political scientist who has been following political developments in North America very closely in the past, I would like to forward the following statement:
Mr. President, please reconsider your decision not to publish evidence of torture committed by US troops. As transparency has been a major issue in your campaign, you have raised high expectations which you are about to disappoint badly. Why not set up a committee which has (truly) independent experts assess the material before maybe publishing at least parts of it. Anything else, I am afraid, would make your role in this appear like some cover-up activity.
Thank you for listening, and feel free to contact me anytime.
Best wishes,
Rikki
