EIT is a Sin Against Mankind....

[OldRegular]

If it's not torture why did the US prosecute enemy solders for performing it during WW2?

As you are fond of saying, Source please!

Because we won. Don't worry, though, we'll never have to worry about winning again. That should make Obama supporters very happy.

Don't forget, of course, that when the next terrorist attack comes, the terrorists won't be asking whether or not their victims are liberals who were against EITs.

Because we won? So if the Nazi's had won everything they had done would have been moral including the Holocaust? That's an incredible statement LE.

From the Washington Post

Twenty-one years earlier, in 1947, the United States charged a Japanese officer, Yukio Asano, with war crimes for carrying out another form of waterboarding on a U.S. civilian. The subject was strapped on a stretcher that was tilted so that his feet were in the air and head near the floor, and small amounts of water were poured over his face, leaving him gasping for air until he agreed to talk.

and the actual charge against Asano...

Specification 1: That in or about July or August, 1943, the accused Yukio Asano, did willfully and unlawfully, brutally mistreat and torture Morris O. Killough, an American Prisoner of War, by beating and kicking him; by fastening him on a stretcher and pouring water up his nostrils. Specification 2: That on or about 15 May, 1944, at Fukoka Prisoner of War Branch Camp Number 3, Kyushu, Japan, the accused Yukio Asano, did, willfully and unlawfully, brutally mistreat and torture Thomas B. Armitage, William O Cash and Munroe Dave Woodall, American Prisoners of War by beating and kicking them, by forcing water into their mouths and noses; and by pressing lighted cigarettes against their bodies.

Okay, that is exactly one Japanese soldier sentenced to 15 years of hard labor. He wasn't charged solely with water torture but with beating, kicking and burning with cigarettes.

My prediction is the next attack on the U.S. will take place in an uber-liberal blue state.

Is Uber-liberal in the Area of Hollywood?

My prediction is the next attack on the U.S. will take place in an uber-liberal blue state.

I found your prediction to be a quiet riot. I think it would only be right if the next attack on our soil were in and around the Hollywood, Burbank, Malibu areas. I'd love to hear Bill Maher defend the uber-liberal after such an attack in the own backyards!

Bye, bye to the NIMBY concept of the uber-liberals

I never said that so again, please quit putting words in my mouth, it is getting very tiring. You give yourself too much leeway here in jumping to unfounded conclusions about what the other members say here and what you choose to read into responses and twist into your own agenda.


Usually, the winner makes the rules when they win the war. At least that's historically how it's been. If the Nazis would have won the war, they would have made the rules and we would be speaking German. Nobody said anything about morality or right or wrong. You asked a question and I gave you the answer. We won. Simple as that. Period.
