The Bush Administration's Secret Legal Memos

[quote name='SpazX']"They" is whoever we're attacking/torturing.

And we wouldn't be torturing them if they weren't guilty right? And they must have information to be gained, otherwise torturing them would be useless, but it can't be useless because we're doing it.

C'mon, I have morals, but I can't let them keep me from doing immoral things to someone who might know something that could potentially hurt me.[/QUOTE]


Oops, for a second I thought you were serious.

Yeah I was bored.

I made the first post way over the top, but then I shortened it so it ended up as something somebody might almost say.

Godwin's Law? It's impossible to make a satirical statement over the internet without someone believing it, because it sounds like something someone, somewhere, would say?

I think that's right.
 
Well, in the New Yorker article that I linked to, it basically says (amidst describing the tortures) that KSM admitted to pretty much everything. Things he had nothing to do with. Just because one thing sticks, and that one thing was just one of multiple sources for that event, then all of the negative aspects of torture go away? I wonder if you torture-lovers would be able to do this torture for yourselves, if you're so gung-ho for it. You would probably be sickened by the things that you're doing. Then again, I'm speaking as a compassionate human being.
