I never thought I would ever see a day where USA would debate over such a sick theme as “torture”. And moreover to see people agreeing with it. This country is really sick, the american values are now a big joke. I´m gone already, to those who can, it is still time to escape… It is going to get a lot worse. I deeply hope I am wrong !

Scott, The Army, Navy, FBI, CIA, etc. all say that no good information comes from using torture. Why compromise all your values for nothing.
Report thisASIDE FROM THAT, I REPEAT, THIS IS OUR CHILDREN WHO ARE BEING TURNED INTO MONSTERS. DO YOU WANT YOUR SON OR DAUGHTER TO BE TAUGHT WATERBOARDING AND ALL THE OTHER DEBASED PROCESSES INVOLVED IN TURNING A HUMAN INTO A TORTURER.

I say to the Bush administration, keep up the good work guys. We need to use any method necessary to prevent another 9-11 in this country. There is NO way that you can compare what we are doing to get information from these “scum” of the earth, to what Hitler did! Where are our ovens of death and the “millions” of Jews that we have killed. People need to stop having a bleeding heart for these radical islamics and wake up to what they are capable of doing! They preach hatred towards this country and would rather see us dead.

Remember all the books and articles, not only on the German atrocities, but the actions in Argentina, and so many other cases where we as Americans claimed the moral highground and were quite rightly shocked and horrified that humans could do these things, even educated humans, doctors, etc, who did not have the excuse of not being civilized, not being white, not being like us. Part of that time we were ignoring the fact that we had done much the same things in Vietnam, but until there were books and movies we could pretend not to know.
Report thisCAN WE STILL PRETEND NOT TO KNOW.
CAN WE AGREE TO TURN OUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS OVER TO THESE PEOPLE SO THEY CAN BE MADE INTO MONSTERS.

Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, TAKE NOTE. Your “torture” policies authorize American officers to commit acts for which the Second World War Allies had hanged Gestapo and SS officers and Japanese prison-camp commanders.
And don’t forget that Hitler and Goebbels committed suicide - to avoid a similar fate?
