And again the rub... IT'S TORTURE. America does not TORTURE defenseless prisoners. Bush did... President Obama and the rest of the world correctly thought he was completely off the reservation with this one and the practice was eliminated by President Obama.
We could have just started shooting them until someone spilled the beans too... but that's insane. It's not a matter if any information was gleened... it's that it was immoral and wrong and against international standards that we had agreed to.
And the whole idea that we could ONLY get information this way... or that that information actually stopped anything is pure hyperbole.
Again you are just floundering trying to say TORTURING human beings in prison is good. It is not.
We are not supposed to EVER target civilians. Saying we have we done things that are wrong in the past hardly exonerates doing other wrong & immoral things under Bush/Cheney.
They had a little of a monster streak in them and they let it show. Thank God it's over now.
Bush/Cheney was one of the, if not the the lyingest administrations of all times. And on things that really cost lives. They were a discrace to America.

Although the Geneva Convention is a good international standard that should have been applied to these detainees there are other international standards that have been discussed that cover OUR TORTURING of bound and defenseless prisoners as absolutely wrong and immoral.
If you believe that the international standard is that the United States can TORTURE anybody not in an official military uniform you are incorrect.
Semantics won't keep you guys out of hell for promoting and glorifying the TORTURE of bound and defenseless detainees Rob.
Now that the world knows what the TORTURE KINGS of America BUSH & CHENEY snuck through... I certainly don't.
We were criminals. You got away with it this time. It's nothing to gloat about. It's pretty sick.
It only takes enough nukes to kill everybody once. America running around black bagging detainees and TORTURING them is not helpful my friend.
I'm just saying you may want to reflect before you get too cocky. Thinking our "Superior power" will always be enough no matter how we medal in other countries affairs to try and expand our global power and TORTURING defenseless prisoners because we said so may come back and bite you in the a$$ in an unbelievable and devastating way.
The Romans did that... how many Romans do you see running things now?
