Torture

I am kinda tired and don't really feel like writing a long detailed post about the various facets of torture that have come out over the last couple of weeks. This will read like a bunch of random thoughts.

To the people who call things like waterboarding and slamming people's heads into walls something that isn't torture I just want to ask why would we be doing it if it wasn't torture?

What I find more appalling then the fact that we actually torture people is the fact that we employ such matters when it is not even an effective way to gather information from suspects. Most of the information we get from torturing people is unreliable because people will reveal anything you want to hear just to get the pain to stop. Also if you waterboard an individual over 180 you're either really fucking bad at torturing someone or its not an effective method of gathering intelligence information.

Right now Bill O reilly is going crazy about how Obama is putting out memos and pictures about prisoner abuse that we are putting various American people and interests at home and abroad in danger and that Obama is the worst person in the world for letting this happen. You know what fuck Bill-O and every other fucking hack piece of shit host on Fox News and talk radio who advances this retarded four year old logic. The worst part is that Bill-O just admitted that the U.S. is guilty of committing prisoner abuses. Let me get this straight. So the previous administration is guilty of horrible acts that break not only our laws but international laws and it is somehow Obama's fault for revealing how corrupt the previous administration was? Makes perfect sense.

What is also something that makes me mad is that the same people who either dfend America's implementation of torture or who don't agree that we have tortured would probably advocate bombing the fuck out of a country who employed the same methods we have on citizens from our country. It is kind of hypicritical just like it is when those who say they are pro life actively cheered when Israel bombed the shit out of the Gaza Strip and employed hard core fucking shit like white phosperus in populated areas (and if you want to see how horrific that shit is click on this link). It basically burns your skin to the bone.

Oh and I guess I should say that not all Fox Hosts are idiots.



All though this has nothing to do with torture a while ago I posted a video by the group Matt and Kim called Daylight and this is their new video. I kind of like this song almost as much and the video is pretty cool. It even has a surprise ending.
