Ya know, it is possible to ape the behavior of another culture (fascists, terrorists of whatever stripe, etc.) and lose in the process what makes one's own culture worth defending. Aside from practical matters—e.g., torture does not work; torture leaves our service professionals open to similar treatment and destroys the perhaps bizarre notion of civilized wars—by accepting torture, I believe we wholly lose the moral base that we Americans brag about. Means and ends and all such. Important stuff to me. Nice to see you, Michael.

An U.S. commanders decision to follow orders of enemy torture to obtain intell compared to WW Germany's Comanders in Concentration camps to the just plain torture and murder/elimination / human experimentation /mayhem of all sorts to non-combatants, please! After all we all are in favor of accomodating enemy combatants with love and affection, showering them with gifts and favors in hopes taht they will tell us some impertanant info. Really what are we to do? That's right I said it, i'm not too rah-rah about the rights of Terorists, to me they are just a hate club with a narrow point of view and a messed up ajenda. Are we torturing anyone else? Maybe I would care more. Comparing our present torture scenario to Nuremburg is a far stretch.

Interesting how Cheney continues to reveal himself as a corrupt turd the more he tries to defend what cannot be defended. I hope so as well.
