A terrorist group will not treat our soldiers better if their terrorist friends are mistreated. Use military personnel should not be in the torture business. Leave that for the OGAs.

The USA probably abuses/tortures a lot fewer than most other countries (at least the ones who actually fight anymore). The difference is they straight up lie about it. Why do you think the detainees who were facing transfer back to their countries or near by homeland countries wanted to stay in the "American Gulag"

I don't believe Al'Qeda signed the Geneva Convention. Why afford them any rights?

As for the Japanese soldiers who faced trial for water torture, that was probably their least offense.

Torture needs to be better defined and agreed upon. Some thing loud music, others isolation, other darkness.

Once again history is written by the victors
