I'm talking about throughout history Jackhole. Waterboarding has always been considered torture going back to the Spanish Inquisition.RichClem » 16 Dec 2014 2:13 pm » wrote:How freaking absurd. There wasn't even any public discussion about it, so how can you say there was no dispute?
What an obvious lie.
President Theodore Roosevelt ordered the court-martial of General Jacob H. Smith for using waterboarding in the Philippines.
We also court-martial our own soldiers for using it on North Vietnamese POWs.
And in 1981, a Texas Sheriff and three of his deputies were tried and convicted for using waterboarding to force confessions.
The sheriff was sentenced to ten years in prison, and the deputies to four years.
