The so-called "torture techniques" allegedly being used by the United States would cause a fraternity or sorority pledge to burst out in laughter! I knew kids in college who were compelled to drive the length of state toll roads completely naked paying for $0.25 tolls with crisp $100.00 bills. They suffered no permanent psychological damage and now laugh about it decades later. I'm sure the tollbooth collectors are still chuckling, too.
If innocent student can handle the temporary stress, I would have thought that committed jihadists were a bit tougher. Perhaps I'm wrong about those swarthy desert sissies.

We are losing this debate by allowing the left and our enemies to redefine torture. The Geneva convention clearly defines torture, and the US isn't torturing anyone.
Half the things that go on in typical Marine boot camp would be outlawed.
What a joke we have become.
