GOP Leader Calls It Like It Is: Torture »
Posted By TechnologyExpert 7 months, 2 weeks ago in Political NewsWhile the Bush Administration liked to call it "enhanced interrogation techniques" or "harsh interrogation tactics," we like to call it like it is: torture. Odds are if the Khmer Rouge, Spanish Inquisition, etc. etc. used it, it's probably torture.

Torture, while being a crime against humanity and an act that certainly weakened America's standing throughout the world, it pales in comparision to the crimes committed that brought us to war and has now killed over a million people and destroyed the lives of many more.

The United States of America under the leadership of George W. Bush has told the world that is is OK to torture. The United States of America is fighting two wars. If an American is captured in one of these wars will this policy of George W. Bush make that American solder more or less likely to be tortured?

Tech. I watched Boehner on TV while he was giving his spiel. I have watched a whole multitude on TV give their spin also. I have read the mainstream written media and got their opinion.

What I have not seen or read even once is the fact that we, the United States of America, tortured people to death. And yet that happened hundreds of times. Another name for it is murder.
I daresay that nearly everyone blathering on TV or writing in mainstream media, knows we tortured detainees to death. Why not admit it?
Water boarding will not kill anyone, but beating detainees with rifle butts, bats, subjecting them to Palestinian hanging, suffocating them, will kill them and there are well documented cases of this happening.
So the speaking of water boarding is simply a diversion from what is the provable worst of war crimes that our Commander in Chief is responsible for. In Bosnia we rounded up those equivalents of Bush and Cheney and sent them to the Hague for war crimes trials.
I read a printing of the acts listed as War Crimes in the Geneva Convention. Bush, Cheney, Congress, and a multitude of other elected and appointed officials in our Government are as guilty of these acts as those Bosnian officials were of their immoral acts. -
