You have no idea what you're talking about on this subject. If you imagine you do, that's insanity.

Some don't view it as torture, we waterboard our own troops to prepare them in the event it is done to them. I know John McCain said we did but I haven't seen anything to support or refute his statement.

Somehow I can't imagine McCain, himself a torture victim, approving of waterboarding. Btw, the Japanese were indeed prosecuted for the "water torture," as it was called. Torture is defined in the Convention Against Torture as more or less any act involving the infliction of severe physical or mental pain or suffering by public officials for a variety of reasons. The US signed the treaty in 1988 under Reagan and it was ratified a few years later, in 1994. My guess is that those who don't view it as torture are probably those who support it or practice it. Can't imagine it would pass a constitutional challenge if introduced by the police in the US, and you can be sure the US would prosecute anyone who did it to US soldiers overseas.
