Seems to me like it was you who claimed that WWII criminals were prosecuted and convicted for water-boarding, so, it also seems to me the that the responsibility for telling me who the criminals were also belongs to you. All I ask was who? So now you want me to go search for your proof? Is that your idea of debate? Just tell me who was convicted of water-boarding in the WWII war trials OK? If you can’t come up with anybody, I’ll understand.

What’s that mumbo-jumbo supposed to mean? Is that really your definition of a conservative or just more leftist circular gibberish?

Everybody except the mentally challenged is a Bush Hater. If your not you should be. He started an unconstitutional war, out spent the Democrats, grew government even BIGGER and started this bailout crap for Wall Street. That’s enough to cause even the religious right to hate him. Oh! I forgot, the religious right loves BIGGER government as much as Bush and the Democrats, huh?

Presidents and Congress and even the judges are famous for breaking constitutional law the majority of them could have and should have been prosecuted and removed. The so called adult inmates have been running this asylum ever since I can remember. The so called adults elect these morons and power hungry perverts. That’s why we’re always in unconstitutional wars, always losing more of our constitutional rights. Always being ripped off by Wall Street bandits and arguing about torturing poo wittle terrorist who’d cut your head off in a New York minute.

If torturing terrorist saves lives, and I believe it does, then I say have at it!

Trying to have an intelligent discussion with leftist is like milking bulls.

We can make it retroactive.

My apologies, I thought this was common knowledge. I guess "they" do not know there was trials after WWII? Dang public school system!


Jack this is a very informative over view of Japanese war trials we the United States conducted.

Quote:

In 1945, at long long last, the bill was coming due. Before the courts-martial and military commissions recessed for the last time, some 5,600 Japanese had been prosecuted in more than 2,200 trials. Of these men–and a few women–more than 4,400 were convicted, and about 1,000 were executed. Testifying to the Allies’ determination to deal fairly with the enemy, there had also been about the same number of acquittals. 　 The nations that sat in judgment were the United States, Great Britain, Australia, the Netherlands, France, the Philippines and China. Some Japanese were ‘tried’ by the Soviet Union at its Kafkaesque worst, the tribunals serving simply as mouths for the rawest sort of political slander of the West. In stark contrast to their comrades in arms tried elsewhere, the defendants almost uniformly pleaded guilty, apologized publicly, and had something warm and fuzzy to say about the exemplary justice of the ‘People’s Paradise.’ Soviet trials are not included in the totals given above.

Legal Issues Concerning International Crimes

Quote:

Crimes against humanity are recognized as severe international offenses against the peace and security of mankind. The "Drafted Code of Offences against the Peace and Security of Mankind" compiled by the International Law Commission of the UN made it an internationally recognized crime to engage in "systematic or mass violations of human rights". Crimes in this category include all those previously listed as "crimes against humanity" , and are extended from this list to include crimes of "torture, establishing or maintaining over persons a status of slavery, servitude or forced labor". The characteristics of crimes against humanity are: Firstly, the perpetrator is a state or individual who carries out the crimes through state power. Secondly, the perpetrator carries out the crimes based on his personal political ambition, or hatred against people of different religious belief. And finally, the acts that constitute crimes against humanity include premeditated deprivation of human lives, forced slavery, delivering citizens to remote and desolated areas for forced labor; deportation or forcible transfer of population and other offenses that injure or deprive citizens of their rights to life, liberty, equal protection and religious faith. 　 Willful deprivation of civilian population's right to liberty, passing criminal sentence without legal and factual basis, maintenance of an extremely low standard of living for a civilian population, and persecution on the grounds of political, religious, and/or racial differences, are all within the ambit of crimes against humanity. 　 These documents spell out that not only can the dictator of a nation or other individual in power be held criminally liable for these offences, but liability can also be assessed against anyone who acts against humanity while implementing state policy. 　 In the "Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment", the UN defines the term "torture" as "any act by which severe pain or suffering, whether physical or mental, is intentionally inflicted on a person for such purposes as obtaining from him or a third person information or a confession, punishing him for an act he or a third person has committed or is suspected of having committed or intimidating or coercing him or a third person, or for any reason based on discrimination of any kind, when such pain or suffering is inflicted by or at the instigation of or with the consent of a public official or other person acting in an official capacity." 　 Torturous acts are many, such as tying someone up, beating a person while suspended, burning or baking someone using fire, subjection to cold and hunger, electrical shocks, etc. The acts also include repeated interrogations, coercion, threats, insults and other means of mental torture. These criminal acts are not limited to interrogation or coerced confession in criminal proceedings; they also include any other acts that forcefully subject a person to physical or mental pain and suffering.

　
And lastly I know you only asked for one but here are several names charged with crimes against humanity, including the charges of water torture.

Not necessarily in that order.

Define torture. An authoritive definition, not a dictionary one.
