Is Water Boarding Torture? Watch and See!

[Daddubo]

This is awesome!





Watch it and understand why we have the best military in the world. There is no permanent damage done but the response is immediate. A much more humane and effective way to obtain critical intelligence quickly without brutalizing the prisoner. Sure beats electrocution, ripping off finger nails, acid showers, whippings/beatings, cutting off limbs, removing eyes & tonuges, drilling out teeth, dislocating shoulders, burning and other ways the muslims use.





Only if you have a strong heart.





Playboy.com journalist Mike Guy underwent waterboarding by a trained member of the U.S. Military in the site's new Lab Rat feature.





Guy bet that he could endure 15 seconds of the interrogation technique used by the Bush administration on al Qaeda Chief Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and Abu Zubaydah.





Watch the Video for the effective results:

Interesting...I did'nt know the mechanic's of it. There is a line between intel and trying to save lives vs. "human rights". I personally do not think this crosses that line as long as the subject dosen't die. maybe

It seems like it plays with your mind but there is not any physical harm unlike what the enemy does and no one on the left condemns.

I had it done to me during Navy SERE (Survival, Escape, Resistance, Evasion) School in 1969. It wasn't a "pleasant" feeling! they didn't allow us to say "enough" though!

All Navy pilots had it done to them (now Hampton probably did it at the Officer's Club) as part of the week long SERE training. You "survived" off of the land for 4 days, then "evaded" capture for a day, then "resisted" the capture and torture, and then "evaded" if you could escape the prison camp. The west coast squadrons did it in the mountains east of San Diego.

Not a lot of fun - not much to eat for a week, living in a box for 24 hours, pissing in a "honey bucket", being "tortured" (I got the water board), "interrogated" and "indoctinated" at all hours - but at the end, when they hoisted the American Flag over the "POW" camp, it was an emotional moment.

Thanks for your Service to our Country, it hits home when you have some one in harms way. I didn't have the pleasure of going to Vietnam due to my wife being regent with my son in 67 but that son has 23yrs in the USAF and will be Lt. Col. in April he will be home from Afghanistan in mid May.
