so I guess ALL nations are given a free pass to torture prisoners now huh? |
|
have we the honorable american people set a trend for all the world to follow? surely others will be emboldened to start torturing foreigners openly, surely we won't complain when that happens, even if it is one of our g.i. daughters on the receiving end.

We are the Richest-most Anglo-most Christian- most Capitalist(TM) Nation blessed by GAWD Almighty HIMSELF (via Pat Robertson) to torture them Ay-rabs. Now, why do you hate America?

4. By yimminy, I think you may be on to something! |

I see no reason why, if you support the war, why you should not be given a uniform and a gun and sent over to stand up for your beliefs.

5. And the US will pick and choose |

which ones should be held accountable. I guess *'s buddy in Uzbekistan is doing just fine boiling people. If they kiss *'s ass, they seem to have free rein (until they piss him off).
Evil men.

I have a feeling that we have been doing it all along, but it wasn't till recently that it came to the forefront.
The other countries, they have had no problem with people knowing their dirty business. And it has been going on for decades and decades. They didn't need the permission of the US.

If Clinton had authorized this much random torture on ANYONE...he would have been drawn and quartered. His Presidency was the most investigated Presidency ever...and FINALLY they were able to catch him in a lie about a blowjob. IF he were torturing people in secret prisons all over the world...you would have heard about it. However, that's not to say Bush 41 and Reagan didn't do it...:eyes:

seems we are cannon fodder in the first place, to this admin. GI daughters? No self-respecting daughter would be in the military in the first place, is how that type thinks. She gets what she deserves, playing in a man's world. Most don't actually think that, but most will sway with it, as they do with Christianity, same same. Yes but well of COURSE there's a god, and of course I ought to be home baking cookies.
I'd suggest sticking with male gi examples if I were you. I think using the female weakens your cause. Just my two cents, and thank you SO much for all your excellent thoughts and posts on this.
