Sorry, that is not a real ethical debate. Like many other important issues, this one is trivialized by being corrupted by the politics of the day.

Which is why I prefer comic book versions.

Give us some examples of "other ways" to make people talk. Don't forget---these aren't regular people; these are hardened Islamic extremists.

Would it be torture to make them listen to Hillary Clinton's speeches?
We could give them a choice, listen to Hillary or be waterboarded.

I'd choose waterboarding.


Or we could give the islamo-faggots another choice, convert to Christianity or be beheaded. That's more choice than they have ever given.

Waterboarding is a real torture. With waterboarding someone can find false information, because is a violent extortion method!

If that's the case, why aren't we REALLY torturing terrorists?

If waterboarding is as bad as hooking up a car battery to a prisoners testicles [as gay as that sounds], pulling out their fingernails with pliers, beating the crap out of them with baseball bats, drilling their teeth, throwing them off roofs while blindfolded, raping them [as gay as that sounds], hanging them from their arms which are bound behind them, chopping off their hands, stabbing them in the eyes, etc.......why don't we just do all of those things?
