Jesse Helms is best known in the US as a racist Senator from North Carolina. That is unfortunate because his main body of work is not as well known by Americans. Jesse Helms was the head of an international body of death squad leaders.
Because of Helm’s business running the world’s death squads on behalf of the US government, it was an easy step for Bush and Cheney to order overt US government use of torture on POWs held by the US.
