Jim McCallan BS: It is TORTURE not 'abuse'!!! (285* d) RE: BS: It is TORTURE not 'abuse'!!! 08 May 04


"It was NOT torture. It was.... abuse...
What people saw was .... attempts to prevent the people from sleeping
.... to dehumanize the prisoners the way they did
I will agree that it was ... humiliating; but not torture.
"

Looks like you studied at the Gareth Williams Institute for Advanced Debating Skills (GWIADS for short)

"It was stupidity to take pictures and videotapes."

It was not. It was serendipitous.
Otherwise we wouldn't be having this discussion

"Iraqi civilians CAN be classified are as enemy combatants, and such people are not entitled (by law) the benefits of Prisoner of war status."

They CAN also be classified as innocent civilians

"I wish the people would stop listening to the 7 second sound bytes that are designed to evoke emotion instead of applying logic and and reason to the situation"

So do I.

And I wish they would stop taking 9 posts to say it

Jim
