If you are OK with torture and think that should be our policy then you should petition your senators to pull out of the treaty. Until then engaging in torture makes us demostrably dishonest.i>

Are you advocating that the American officials who ordered and carried out water boarding should be tried by the International Court of Justice and be imprisoned for their crimes? Isn't that part of the treaty?

No. One of the conditions in the treaty that was set by the US was that we would try our own people.
