habeus corpus

have been listening to that episode of this american life, about guantanimo bay. am about 15 miniutes into it, but am already feeling physically ill. i don't know if i can finish it. i feel so powerless. it makes me want to burn my passport... yet i won't. it disgusts every moral fiber of my being, yet since it doesn't effect me directly, i'll just not listen to it or think about it, because it can be avoided, and there is nothing i can do to make it better. and any other distancing myself i could do, i won't do because it won't make it better either, it will just make me feel less involved.
