Re: Do you think water boarding is torture?
Waterboarding is a fine line between uncomfortable interrogation and torture. However, the fact that America had the UN define it as torture many many years ago means that it is torture. And as we all know, despite the global denial, what we say goes. But who cares? Does it really matter? At this point in history, no power on earth can do a thing without our involvement. France and the rest of the rabble drug us through the gutter chastizing us for our boldness to take down Saddam Hussein once and for all....did that stop them from begging our participation over Libya? And when it comes to the European financial crisis, would it stop them from reaching a point where they are begging us for a financial handout? Wth China and Russia blocking UN efforts with Iran and Syria do people actually think nations in Europe are the opposing side? Even Europeans seek American intervention just to legitimize an opposing force, which is why they hate when we dare to dip a toe in the depraved waters they purified throughout history.
Oh, but waterboarding a few individuals (on record) in the light of France publicly torturing tens of thousands of Tunisians make us evil? I guess it does to Leftists who can't fathom a world where only America is guilty and even more so if we dared to even think about doing what our allies have perfected.
