Summary
The current condition of the world--brutal wars, extrajudicial killings, genocide--has its roots, Monia Mazigh argues, in the September 11, 2001, attacks in New York. A new world was ushered in, when governments openly violated international law in their "war on terror." In particular, Muslims of various countries were abducted on mere suspicion or whim by America and its collaborating allies and detained to face tortures in so-called secret black sites. Torture was justified by politicians and intellectuals, it was no longer a medieval practice carried out in "backward" countries but an interrogation norm in the West. Monia Mazigh's husband, Maher Arar, was one innocent citizen who was abducted and shipped to a dungeon in Syria and tortured. Mazigh describes her own and her family's ordeal of several years in trying to get Maher Arar finally released.
