no... it is NOT TORTURE!!! it is unpleasant and uncomfortable, but it is not torture. pilots/aircrew/SPEC-OPS undergo it in SERE training.

Well why don’t you have a buddy do it to you or someone you love like your mom or your kid a few times and if you still wouldn’t call it torture then I’ll freely concede the point.
I reiterate that I support it 100% but pretending it’s not torture is silly semantics. It is and so is sleep deprivation and forced sitting in uncombable positions and other similar non-permanently harmful techniques. Torturing these pigs for live-saving information is 100% justified an in my opinion, legal. I would do worse than waterboard them, I’d go as far as penis removal. “We can still reattach it if you talk NOW”.
Pinging some people to see what they think.
