Not exactly considering the USSC shot pretty much all of this down. I disagree, America throughout its history has been a leader in human rights and equal justitce. We have gone out of our way to ensure this. But the notion we are above anyone else is simply not true. The UK does torture, nor any of our major allies. Could you imagine the uproar if the French detained an American with very clear ties to a terror group, held them without any rights and then actually water boarded them? If you think the flap over Iraq and Americans pouring wine down the sewer was worth watching. Imagine the police presence that would be needed at the French embassy if this was the case. Well this is interesting. What if an American citizen had direct knowledge of a plot to nuke NYC? I thought the whole argument here was about keeping Americans safe from terrorism, human rights and consequences be damned.Much like the righties claim we are on slippery slope to socialism, or any other perceived negative notion, allowing foreign nationals be tortured for information could very well lead to Americans being given the same treatment.
