Marnia Lazreg argues in her new book,
Torture and the Twilight of Empire: From Algiers to Baghdad,

http://press.princeton.edu/titles/8524.html

that an empire-in-decline and an increased use of torture go together.

Law & Disorder conducted a fascinating interview with her on December 17, 2007.

(Incidentally, Law & Disorder, broadcast on WBAI, the Pacifica station in NYC, is one of the best weekly discussion programs on the air now. I wonder why KPFA doesn't pick it up? Could KALW carry a Pacifica program that wasnt being aired by KPFA?

Until such time go here to listen to archived shows:
