In the controversy over whether torture, especially waterboarding, was used to gather information leading to the capture of Osama bin Laden, former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld told Fox News' Sean Hannity recently that "no one was waterboarded at Guantanamo by the US military. In fact, no one was waterboarded at Guantanamo, period."
In his memoir, "Known and Unknown," Rumsfeld maintained, "To my knowledge, no US military personnel involved in interrogations waterboarded any detainees, not at Guantanamo or anywhere else in the world." But as we shall see, Rumsfeld was either lying outright, or artfully twisting the truth.

Screw that water board them all. In fact I think we should waterboard every politician to see what there agenda is before elections are held. We might just find out who is on our side and get rid of the riff raffs that way.
ReplyDeleteDo you morons have any idea what OTHER countries are doing to their OWN people? Syria is killing its own citizens daily for protesting against the Dictator Assad. In Uganda and other parts of the former Congo male rape is common by the rebels in charge--black on black brutality. Waterboarding is incredibly HUMANE compared the the methods used by savages in many other countries. Grow up liberals.
ReplyDeleteUnder the Geneva Conventions, terrorists have no rights. They are subhuman and should be dealt with like a rabid dog!
ReplyDelete11:04 why do you think Joe Biden called the Tea Party terrorist? That is what the dummiecrats think about the American middle class. And they just use the poor to move their agenda forward.
ReplyDeleteSo if it is OK that we waterboard their guys, does that make it OK if they waterboard our guys?
