Dianavan, I have read all of the links. News media reports are second hand at best and often only opinion. If you will look at my post of 06 Nov 05 - 07:38 PM, you will see that I answered my own question by providing a link to a military physician's statement regarding forcefeeding at Guantanemo Bay. All of the statements regarding the alleged AMA position on forcefeeding are of newspaper articles quoting someone else saying what the AMA says. I am a historian. I prefer to deal with primary sources. Do you have any facts or only rumors?
