- InfidelAl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5The key part here is "if it would save the life of a comrade". On that note, I'm disappointed only 40% answered positively.
Yeah, I could waterboard this terrorist that we caught shooting at us, or I could just let Johnson over there die. Hmmm, choices, choices. - InfidelAl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I really don't understand this 'moral high ground' stance. Did nuking Japan, twice, give us the 'moral high ground'? What about the mass bombing of Germany? The fire-bombing of Dresden? We need to stop trying to win the peace and start trying to defeat our enemies. Win victory and peace will follow. It's horrible to think of the number of people who have died in the name of 'peace'.

- DeathtotheSwiss, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I checked out this story from an Australian newspaper. Nobody shows us the actual survey questions, nobody defines "torture".
Remember, torture could mean loud music, sleep deprivation, water boarding, desecration of the Koran and being smeared with pigs blood.
The only kind I am in complete defiance of under most circumstances is the kind where prisoners are cut, burn and electrified. Orson Scott Card wrote some pretty convincing words against the use of torture under any circumstance: "Would that humiliation, abuse, and torture have been worth it, if it saved fifty lives?
If someone reached the conclusion that the lives saved were worth the degradation of ourselves and our prisoners, I would not consider them morally monstrous. A case can be made for that viewpoint.
But I would disagree with them. Perhaps because I think there are things more important than life. " - chase001, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5I wonder if it is ok with them if they are captured. We have no moral high ground to stand on any more. To stop terrorists we have become terrorists.
- DeathtotheSwiss, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Who brought up MLK?
- chase001, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3You're right. MLK was a big pot smoking hippie.
- InfidelAl, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3"People are not their governments and are not our enemies. There is no military solution. To anything."
Totally dude. I mean I still feel totally guilty for that whole war of independence thing. I mean what was that about? And were the Jews really that bad off in Germany in the 30-40's? Really now, the French should have just stopped complaining about the whole German 'invasion' thing. Hey man, stop squatting on that, puff puff give...
/sarc off - chase001, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2People are not their governments and are not our enemies. There is no military solution. To anything.
