In article , says... I am not a lawyer but if laws are based on values I have no problem with him being subjected to water-boarding if it save American lives. What, torture everybody you "suspect know something", and let God sort them out? Then I presume you'd assent to the police torturing people to prevent crimes if it saves American lives. Not me. You do know that there's no proof that the CIA saved ANY American lives by torturing "detainees," right? And that 25% of them were innocent victims of mistaken identity? Well, torture them anyway. Let God sort them out. Nope, I don't want such a nightmarish government, where torturers are given free rein. You sure take some interesting liberties in what you think someone said. I was discussing Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (the mastermind of 9/11) specifically and you conveniently snipped the part about what the CIA agent had to say. He's not alone, BTW. Others have said the same thing including the non-CIA guy who actually conducted the water-boarding. Torture to get info on common crimes? Of course not. Water-boarding to gain intel that may prevent mass murders of Americans after a demonstration that the parties involved have that capability? Absolutely. |
