Description

In the first frame United States Secretary of State Hilary Clinton stands at a podium and says 'China has a deplorable record on human rights!' and she continues in the second frame by saying '...so we should abduct those responsible to a secret prison, deprive them of sleep, and then waterboard them till they promise to do better!' The little Evans man says 'Quicker than they can say Guantanamo'. Context - Hilary Clinton is being accused of hypocracy in reminding China of its human rights record but it seems as though torture was used to track down Osama bin Laden. Former members of the Bush administratration claim that the tracking and killing of Osama bin Laden has vindicated the use of torture to obtain information. The claims, however, were immediately refuted by others with detailed knowledge of events at the time. However Leon Panetta, the CIA director, has confirmed that controversial "enhanced interrogation techniques" such as waterboarding yielded some of the intelligence information that ultimately led to Osama bin Laden.
