Waterboarding

This is the greatest atrocity America has ever conceived. Barbaric, detestable, the lowest America has ever slipped. In fact, there is no way to go lower. The Geneva Convention identifies that war prisoners will be treated with dignity and respect.

America, the greatest nation in the history of mankind, must absolutely treat war prisoners as prescribed by the Geneva Convention. There can absolutely be no variation as we set the human pattern for all of mankind. We are not a bunch of barbarians. God and all humanity demand we be a model of honor. Otherwise, I believe God will, in total disdain, kick us like He should. Two words can describe God: Just and righteous.

True, waterboarding may be administered in a human manner but “don’t mess with my mind.” This is an attitude justifiable to all POW’s.

Who fights our present war? It is not the rich nor the politician’s son. It’s our motivated poor. Personally, I’m for a draft so as to be fair. Then there would not be the consideration of waterboarding.
