Political Correctness Strikes Again!

A search of today's news sources on the Internet including those from the USA, Britain and Germany failed to find any reference to the use of the word "torture"in story about the British 15 hostages.
The papers all over the world have headlines quoting Amnesty International and other U.S. hating ilk calling the conditions at Guantanamo "cruel conditions". The word torture is used frequently. But in all the stories about the 15 Britts confinement there is not one instance where the word "torture" was used.
This is despite the fact that in the post release interviews the hostages related the fact that for 13 days they had been kept in isolation, blindfolded , handcuffed, slept on the floor, and interrogated all night on many occasions.
The only time they were together, they were lined up against a wall blindfolded and subject to the sounds of cocking weapons. This caused some to fear they were about to be executed. They were threatened with seven year jail terms if they did not confess
The First Sea Lord admiral Johnathon Band in typical British understatement, was quoted in the "Times online": "it appeared the confessions made to the Iranians( that they were in Iran's sea space) have been made under a certain amount of psychological pressure".
Being handcuffed, blindfolded and kept in solitary confinement alone qualifies as mental torture. But the "PC" press has left that word out of all coverage.
Roget's Thesaurus refers to torture as repeated afflicting of suffering or annoyance. I think their treatment qualifies unless only Americans are allowed to be called torturers.
In an act of total arrogance the Iranian Ambassador in London referred to the hostage release as, "a show of good will, and now it is up to the British government to proceed in a positive way. We will welcome in general any steps that will defuse tensions in the region".
This representative of the midget megalomaniac in Tehran never considered for a second that the taking of the "15" WAS AN ACT OF WAR, and everything would "calm down" if Iran stopped the pursuit of nuclear weapons.

But this is not a remote possibility. What happens next?
