Have anything on Islamist methods of torture? I thought you might have some
of those video clips of people being set alight, having their arms pulled
off my jeeps, their testicles cut off or throats cut?
Given that the US army dished out less violence to those Iraqis than was
typically dished out to army recruits (before hazing was banned), I think
they got off lightly.
Using words like "Torture" and "Abhorrent" is a bit strong. What words do we
have left for things like Daniel Perle being sliced open on tape? Are people
seriously suggesting there is some equivalence between this ultra-rare
conduct of rogue soldiers and what is routine in the Islamic world (torture
and murder of prisoners)?
Oh ye innocents.
[Blunderov] My dear friend Limbic I must protest! This is a blatant tu
quoque and I know you know better.
What on earth have the enemies' alleged practices got to do with anything?
Torture Lite is still torture. It is still abhorrent. There is no such thing
as a 'little bit abhorrent'.
Surely?
Best Regards
