I agree. We need to show all horrors of AlQueda. Show the censored films from 9-11 and the people all jumping to avoid the fires. Show the filmed beheadings or videos of our troops captured and killed by them. Show how the bodies are all booby- trapped so when medics arrive, they're killed too. How about showing the prisons in Afghanistan and Iraq before we got there. Everyone whines about the prisoners being lead around naked by a few troops. Why not show off Saddam's rape rooms? Why not show off his video taped records of those he had killed. Both sons maintained their own collections. How about the Saudi executions? How about the Iranian stonings, they're real pretty.... Explain the methods used in their hangings too. Short drop so the prisoner's neck isn't broken, increasing suffering. Then again, the raping of women in the event they're virgins, can't have that it's against some Islamic law or other. Then again, why not show off some of the Taliban work. The mass hangings at the old soccer fields always told me the barbarism that is Islam.

So are you really sure you want to compare being kept in a cold room or fed low carb diets as torture?-

Are you so sure you want to dismiss waterboarding and other techniques as torture? Why are you so adamant about AlQuaeda's torture but so dismissive of US torture? Don't you, as an American who prides themselves on truth, clarity, transparency and the ultimate right of freedom and democracy want to know exactly what kinds of torture or non-torture the US, a country that consistantly claims the moral upper hand, engaged in?
I agree. Show the horrors of the world from ALL of the world. Totalitarian countries AS WELL as countries that claim democracy and the moral upper road.
Maybe they'll show the Israeli video of the IDF packing a house full of 130something people and then intentionally targeting it, as Amnesty International has reported? Or maybe they'll show the stoning of women by Orthodox Jews for wearing PANTS! Well. I guess we can't be too hopeful for truth on all sides of the picture.
Maybe they'll even show videos of all the torture rooms in China, or the rape rooms, or the prostitution houses for high officials, or how they execute prisoners and then harvest their organs. Then they can talk about why they're a most-favored-nation trading partner so we can understand better why we're not invading such a horrific country? -
