You are getting silly, where did I post anything other than a serious challenge to your posts, challenges that so far, you keep ignoring.

Show me an actual quote, not your fake ones.

To: Romulus
I don’t know how you can so sterilize the mass of interrogations in the training exercises all over the world and ignore the water-boarding of many 10s of thousands of Americans and NATO troops, I almost lost a friend to one interrogation as he was close to death from being suffocated by an NBC bag, when the officer in charge of the training exercise for the MI interrogators, came in and saved him.

Those three high ranking terrorists would have been under more controlled conditions and expertise and even value, than most any other American who is being water-boarded, is going to see.

It is laughable to see you posturing as posting at FR at such a high plain, that you are above responding to other freepers on threads.

Romulus is perhaps the most right wing, traditionalist Catholic on FR. This means he is against torture when it could possibly be of benefit to any Jew at any time, and especially in the Holy Land.

His opinions of the torture accusations against various Catholic strongmen in Latin America have never been recorded. But then, at one time all such figures regarded the Israelis as being the ultimate bosses of International Communism and the Arabs as their fellow anti-Communists. Some people still believe it.

Ironically, I have always been against torture for a very practical reason: if you hurt someone badly enough you can get them to say anything in order to get you to stop, and any such "confession" is useless.

The main issue in any such case is of course Divine Law, and while I don't know what it is in that case, I doubt it approves.

I'm not a fan of torture, but I despise "palaeo" hypocrisy on the subject. And other subjects (hawks vs. doves, eg).
