there will be a day
in the future one of our troops will be tortured
i'm predicting that all of the chickehawks who advocate torture as an acceptable practice by us will be up in arms (someone else - in military uniform - will be carrying them, however)
there will be a hue and cry that the enemy is despicable and without honor because they tortured an American
i hope that day of reckoning is very distant. but when it happens, know that you have given them license to act in that barbaric fashion - just like us
