Complicity in Torture

jeudi 28 mars 2019 à 01:00

Tunisian President Accused Of Complicity in Torture (while an official in Bourguiba's dictatorship).

The current president is also accused of arranging to block the prosecution of many officials for corruption.

People in a dictatorship generally obey many nasty orders because they see no safe way to avoid it. It is wrong to prosecute someone for failing to do something heroic and dangerous when there was a chance.

But even under a dictatorship it is easy to avoid taking a job which includes torturing others, so I think we should hold those who did those jobs responsible for what they did.
