I have absolutely no problem with torturing a guy like this for info. .....by any means necessary.
I'm not about to register at Washington .comPost just to find out how this story ends. Does the Syrian reveal any valuable info as a result of the tactics?
I don't care about prisoner abuse anymore. I'm sick of it.
I don't care.
Were I only to be accepted for service...I would make them home movies and show their parents, extended families, wives, children, and home towns how well their jihadies learned obedience and the New Testament.
This is from The Onion, right?
While I'm sure this sort of tactic will enrage the Chattering Class, folks in the red states will applaud it.
Can't wait until Big Media convicts Saddam of something. At this point, anything will do...
Bush is a lame duck, get ready for the first Kerry administration.
SO WHAT?! Shut up already so we can get on with winning the war, ya morons. Your attempts to bring down the president are futile. I would bet a majority of people would approve of tough methods of interrogation against terrorist scum.
Bull hockey, horsefeathers, baloney!
How the heck do we expect to win a war when these handwringers whine about something like this? Human Rights Watch and an American U. Prof doesn't like it? Tough. This stuff is becoming ridiculous.
If it was a choice between one American life and a million humiliated, abused, tortured or dead suspects, then kill 'em all.
Having seen the results of terrorism first hand, both in Israel and here, there isn't anything I wouldn't sanction to protect my family and nation from these animals.
I wish it wasn't so, but the die is cast.
This is an orchestrated assault by the Dems which I suspect has been in the planning stage for a long time.
If they can afford to expend this kind of firepower this early what must they still have in reserve for after the Olympics?
There are just too many forces arrayed against Bush for him to survive.
Even the GOP members of Congress are jiumping ship to save their own skins.
Geneva conven. does not apply to non-uniformed terrorists.
I see you followed them right out the door. Vote for Hillary!
suggests a wider circle of involvement in aggressive and potentially abusive interrogations of Iraqi detainees,
the order indicates the abuses could instead have been an outgrowth of harsh treatment that had been approved.
Although no direct links have been found between the documented abuses and orders from Washington,
"it is imperative that interrogators be provided reasonable latitude to vary their approach," depending on a detainee's background, strengths, resistance, and other factors. [The order] also explicitly demands humane treatment and requires that any dogs present during the interrogations be muzzled.
The report itself is filled with weasel words -- "could", "potentially", etc.
In other words, the Post (and their friendly leakers)could find no documentation of command authorization to abuse the prisoners...but they'd like you to think they did.
Dishonest journalism, peddling an agenda...
I'm reading this as "they coated his swarthy ass with Oscar Meyer bacon.......
Well, now you've done it. What the hell are you thinking? I expect better from you;)
Just consider this a frontpage ad for John Kerry, manufactured by the Post. That way, this article makes sense.
