CIA used mock executions etc.

So who's in favor and who's against torture?

In favour of torture:
Aramike
Thomen
CastleBravo
CaptainHaplo
Skybird

Against torture:
Me
Letum
Max2147

Those who feel they are misrepresented may ask to be changed into a different category.

Fixed for you.

I never said that torture is ok, you are, once again misinterpreting and misrepresenting things. In fact, it was you, who said that other countries procedures do not count, therefore, it is you (once again) who supports or ingnores torture in other countries, as long as you can blame the US.

Oh and just for kicks and giggles.. Since you are so adamant that Americans are fat or living here also makes you fat, you are aware that there are, percentage wise, more obese people in Finland than there are in the USA or most other European countries?

But I have to admit, reading your weird and twisted reasonings make an interesting read for rainy gloomy days of boredom and are a nice distraction from most of the other political threads that end in a partisan slug fest.

Nope. You are agreeing with the notion that it's ok for US to torture if other nations do it as well. I wonder if this logic includes or excludes the many South American nations where the US 'imported' torture through the School of Americas? The extraordinary renditions have also transported people to be tortured to places like Syria. Does this make it ok for US to use torture?

Nope, the US is the fattest nation in the world.

Where did I say that I agree that it is ok, if other nations do it?

Once again, you make assumptions without any solid facts to back you up.

And nope, they aren't the fattest.. atleast the Finns are fatter, according to a study done by an institute in Finnland

Well why is torture ok then?

According to an American study the Americans are fattest. And according to a German study...oh, wait you're not German.

Once again, you are trying to deflect from the issue. Where did I say that torture is ok? Please point it out.

So, who are the obese people then? Once again you are being very selective in what you want to see or understand.

The subject of this thread is torture by the US. Stick to the topic.
