With the Arab Spring events, I have been hoping for more civilization in the muslim world. Now, however, there are reports of torture under the new regime in Libya. Hopes dashed.
Muslim societies have been notorious for torture for a very long time. Even some participants in this forum seem to approve of people being beaten. It seems that if one falls into the hands of the police in muslim lands, one can expect to be tortured and even beaten to death.
Why do muslim societies approve, even embrace, torture?
