Re: What About Mukasy\'s Position on Waterboarding?
[ QUOTE ]
Would it matter that we considered waterboarding a war crime in 1947 when the Japanese did it?
Does it matter that many people who supervise waterboarding in training our troops consider it torture, and say that it has no place in our armed forces outside of showing our soldiers what could happen if they fall into the wrong hands?
Does it matter that now we don't mind doing that which we condemned 60 years ago? I thought we were supposed to rise above our enemies, not stoop to their level. I don't know which is sinking faster: our dollar or our spirit.

I predict within 5 or 10 years, almost all criminal activity will be considered terrorism.
