Ever want to just Unsubscribe?Governments think they can get away with abusing human rights as long as it is done under the banner of the 'war on terror'. We want you to make it clear that this is not acceptable.Torture, rendition, secret prisons, locking people up for years without trial... That's not how to behave is it? Terror, wrong.
