Disagree because there are always excuses you can find to torture someone. And the shining city on the hill doesn't torture people.
That's true and the US hasn't tortured anyone... that you and the sisters of the left need to redefine torture is your problem... the word has a meaning and making a detainee, whose is DETAINED BECAUSE HE WAS BUSY PLOTTING OR EXECUTING MASS MURDER... uncomfortable or fearful of their life, is NOT TORTURE. And it will never be torture NO MATTER HOW MANY PEOPLE ERRONOUSLY CONCLUDE OTHERWISE.
So you've said before.
Yet the US Govt says otherwise, called it a war crime and prosecuted and sentence people to 15 years hard labor for doing it.
You're of course speaking of the trials of Japanese post WW2... where individuals were tried for brutal, bone crushing, muscle tearing, joint snapping TORTURE... and that you want to compare the 'water torture' implemented by those people is simply a function of your ignorance. They are not comparable in the slightest.
With regard to the current US Government which 'says so'... they're anti-American, pro-terrorist, subversives who are only presently in POWER, in the US goverment...
Of course they also say that someone is entitled to the production of another person's labor... and as is ALWAYS the case, they're simply unable to offer a valid, intellectually sound, logically valid basis for such.
I should point out that the Former US Executive said it was PERFECTLY FINE... so there seems to be a difference of opinion; what we're establishing here is that the present government's opinion is BASELESS...
