Do you want me to post politician links saying it is not torture?  This will get us nowhere. 


Further, waterboarding is part of the special forces training.  Are you telling me we torture our own soldiers when we train them? 




Or I can be in the company of the US government (many top officials) and the US special forces. 




No, it looks like a case of people who violated their regulations and were then tried for it.  This is not the norm and you know it.  I also did not see in the so called "torture" memos saying those techniques were acceptable, perhaps you can point me to the line. 




Maybe we should tell that the families of the few thousand dead people we would have on our hands after LA was hit.  Maybe we could tell it to the families of the would-be victims of the London airline plot instead? 


I am sure they would all just love to hear how their dignity was kept intact while their family members were obliterated.  Further, waterboarding the masterminds of 9/11 is not torture.  If it is, then we torture our own soldiers all the time.  We are outraged for waterboarding three known terrorists, but doing it to our own soldiers is OK?
