How come it's "well treated" when it's Brit soldiers being made to
stand clindfolded for hours with guns being coked near their heads,
but it's torture when the US does something similar to Iranian
terrorists?



Excuse me, but we're supposed be better than terrorists. We should not
be torturing people. Unfortunately, this isn't the case.


Making someone stand is not torture....heck, the nuns used to make us
do it for hours...or kneel..it works...problem is, you're all touchy
feely about bad people..you want a rose served on their dinner tray at
mealtime and soft music playing in the background so they'll
"rehabilitate"..that doesn't work...so...make them stand and be
uncomdrtab;le...it's not like we were shoving pins under their nailbeds
or dripping water on their foreheads....grow up, Jon...the world ain't
rosy (except in yourw and O'Donnell's world)



You can play the personal attack card all you want. The facts are that
we allowed torture to happen to those under our control. Did your nuns
waterboard you?



No, but they stuck your gum on the blackboard higher than you could stand
and planted your nose in it while on tiptoes...and that pointer could do
some majorly major damage to your knuckles or backside depending on where
it was applied...




Do you think that's what we've been doing in Gitmo? Rapping their
knuckles?


Yep..of sorts...we certainly aren't maiming them for
life...uncomfortableness results in many things...compliance for one...



You're really not thinking clearly. We just released a guy after 5 years. He
had done nothing, but was kept in solitary, tortured, beaten, and he begged
them to listen. We're supposed to be better than this.
