Rob it was wrong.
You can put wings on a pig but that don't make him an eagle. That's all Bush did. It will be held against us because most think it violates international law... not just Liberals or other countries but your Party's candidate for President of the United States of America Senator John McCain.
Thankfully President Obama was elected to clean up this mess. America no longer TORTURES detainees.
Oh no it was definately wrong. People get away with stuff every single day that is wrong. It was morally wrong and violated multiple agreements we as a country had made condeming TORTURE.
Key word: PASSED... thank you.
OK THEN! You can't get touchy when I say you liked it. That's what I said. You didn't think it was bad... i.e. you liked it.
Again we agree.
I never said targeting civilians was illegal. I don't think "targeting" prisoners for water suffocation is illegal. It's doing that breaks the rules & standards, not thinking about it.
And you know while we run every scenario through war games simulators the goal of nukes is to be a deterrent not a first strike weapon.
Well let's just say right now you're holding the record.
And that's what we should have done... interrogated and imprisoned them them without DROWNING THEM.
I do it for two reasons. One: To illustrate their true position and Two: It's a different situation if they are actively fighting our men & women or trying to escape. Then you might have to shoot them who knows.
Ah then you know Russian military thinking. God knows I've heard enough about it... LOL! What do they do differently compared to us in almost every military field?
With the Russians it's quantity over quality. They might have say a lesser tank... but they have 10 or 20 to 1 in numbers. Same all the way up the line. They are numbers driven.
My wife is a reader and a puzzle person not a blogger. She actually thinks I'm crazy for blogging. She no $hit reads 5 or 6 books a week every week and plays games like suduko like Dustin Hoffman gambles in Rain Man.
It's the whole "pattern" thing she's good at & freakin' LOVES! That's what she did in the military. When she was in she had a direct hook up and reported to NSA. She would first break intercepted messages down from Russian into English... then work on breaking down word patterns for code... then string code words together for meaning and give a report.
Eventually the Army took back more control over her section and she decided to leave the service. She liked reporting more directly to NSA much better.
I think arrogance on the world stage with a sense of entitlement and their belief they had undefeatable power is what the Romans thought they had too.
The Carthaginian General Hannibal as well as the barbarians from Gaul seemed... let's say... less impressed.
Those who fail to recognize history are bound to repeat it. We shouldn't torture.
