Re: Is waterboarding torture?
Nice try, but no cigar. Your hypoxia example is the red herring. This is a waterboarding thread. What's next? Doctors inducing people into comas with drugs equating torture?

Re: Is waterboarding torture?
Don't you find it amazing that there are people in this Forum who are either pro-torture or too damn stupid to grasp what is torture? Either way we're dealing with people who have some serious issues that psychologically are beyond deficient and might even border on psychopathic.

Re: Is waterboarding torture?
I'm still waiting for you to tell us what we CAN do to get information from these captives? What if we know they have valuable information as to operations and logistics that will stop planned attacks.
How far can we go and be specific. First it was Geneva Conventions except we can't question them at all if we treat them under those agreements to which they are not a party. So what is it, how far can we go to get information of vital national security and protection of our troops? |
