Mancow Waterboarded, Admits It's Torture

Pretty partisan article, but the information contained indicates there was much information that was obtained through "enhanced interrogations" that was not obtained by softer means. If correct, a second 9/11 in LA was thwarted by the actions of the CIA and Bush Admin.

There are good arguments for either side

I'm honestly on the fence. I really don't know what the answer is.

What is your plan to bring peace to this world?

There is no plan. it is a ridiculous notion.

I see you have already accepted what is. You are on the right path, my friend.

I'm honestly on the fence. I really don't know what the answer is.The unfortunate part is that these decsions have to be made in the first place and will continue to have to be made for the forseeable future.

Violence will never end violence. You claim it is ended in the situation you posed, but it is only temporarily gone. Awareness and Consciousness are the only ways to bring peace to this world.

I'm sure Nick Berg would agree with you.

Really may be going over the top with this, but I am pretty sure that Nuking Japan (or firebombing them if we hadn't nuked em) is what it took to stop them. As for awareness and conciousness and diplomacy, I am pretty sure all that was tried with Hitler right up to the point he rolled tanks into Poland.
Fact of the matter is that sometimes, you gotta show that you can "get down and dirty" in order for the awareness and consciousness to set in on people whose actions are ruled by idiomatic beliefs.

Man, I soooo want to answer, kill them all and let God sort them out.

Trample, perhaps Im wrong here -- but I believe the question was are you okay with Americans being tortured by terrorists, rather than American traitors.

I think the assumption is that if we don't torture terrorist than they'll be nice to our captured troops? Whoever believes that needs to have their head examined.

I'm sure Nick Berg would agree with you.

He probably would. I watched the video, and it seemed to me that he accepted what is.

Funny thing is, there is no Nick Berg -- only the One Life, the One Energy. Isn't it amazing to think that the atoms in your body were created inside stars?

You and I are talking about different things. What you call consciousness and awareness are not the Consciousness and Awareness I am talking about.

You cannot force Consciousness and Awareness on people -- it must come from within.

As for Japan and Hitler, you see the world through right and wrong -- rather than what is. There is no right and wrong, only what is. By seeing the world through right and wrong, you'll never be able to accept what is. Therefore, you'll be in constant resistance to the "world" as you see it, and you will continually suffer.
