The only way that this article could be fair, balanced and and inviting to reasoned conclusions would be to run a parallel and contrasting column of Islamofascist actions and pictures of women, children and civilians being beheaded by the servant of Allah.

The idea that torture could be so publicly defensible -- Operative word ... PUBLICLY. Whoever the mastermind are behind all this crap, knew exactly what they were doing.
The United States does not torture, period. If these morons were my employees, I'd be firing them ..... oh wait

Under the geneva conventions, any combatant who uses perfidious means or violates the laws of war, even a simple spy acting out of uniform for purposes of stealth, is not a prisoner of war. Prisoner of war status is for legitimate soldiers wearing uniforms that indicate their belligerent status, or in the case of informal militias and irregular forces, carrying their arms openly and making no attempt to feign civilian status. Combatants who violate these forms of conduct are themselves violating the geneva conventions. And are punishable for it.

Isn't it McCain who suggest torture doesn't work ? even though he gave up his ship, squadron etc...because of torture ?
To: NCjim
Most of the so-called "torture" the left is in a tizzy about are used in military training to resist interrogation. However, I don't see the leftists protesting outside military training bases.
Oh, and of course, giving a lapdance is torture, but the leftists don't protest outside their local strip club. And smearing red ink on somebody is torture, but the leftists aren't protesting the local kindergarten's fingerpainting class.

Looking for al-Qaida's signature on the Geneva Conventions...
looking...looking...
Nope, not there. It applies to both sides, or neither side.

"Is America above the Geneva Conventions?" That may soon be a moot point. There is no longer a USSR, thus any treaties with the USSR are now void. As Islam advances, "Europe" and/or "Geneva" may cease to exist, thus the "Geneva" conventions will also become void.

Well, I just MIGHT have some respect for the author's opinion if he had actually READ the Geneva Conventions that apply!!
A clue:
Most apply to SOLDIERS of an organized Army (to include militias!)
the rest apply to CIVILIANS.
Terrorists are neither - thus - THEY DON'T APPLY!
Is it really that hard to understand? Or are you really just stuck on stupid?? (the author, not the poster!!)
