# “Eleven men imprisoned for a total of nearly twenty years”

>> Thousands of Americans dead forever killed in terror attacks

Are you trying (and failing) to make some kind of point??

you say Liberals are incapable of debating the topic because they are blinded. But you relied on insults to try to prove your point………

Thousands of Americans dead forever killed in terror attacks carried out by terrorists supported by Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan et al.

You know, when I was at Abu Ghuraib, Doctors for Human Rights used to slap me around all the time for minor infractions. They also diddled little boys. I saw it with my own eyes.

I wonder if that’ll make it into the news? Nah, only if I claimed Rumsfeld was in on it.

You lefties are being taken in by anti-US propaganda. Useful idiots all.

“While I was removing a bayonet and scabbard from a dead Japanese, I noticed a Marine…dragging what I assumed to be a corpse. But, the Japanese wasn’t dead. He had been wounded severely in the back and couldn’t move his arms…”

“The Japanese’s mouth glowed with huge gold-crowned teeth and his captor wanted them. He put the point of his kabar (knife) on the base of a tooth and hit the handle with the palm of his hand. Because the Japanese was kicking his feet and thrashing about, the knife point glanced off the tooth and sank deeply into the victim’s mouth. The Marine cursed him and with a slash cut his cheeks open ear to ear. [He put his foot on the sufferer's lower jaw and tried again. Blood poured out of the soldier's mouth.] I shouted “Put the man out of his misery.” All I got for an answer was a cussing out. Another Marine ran up and put a bullet in the enemy soldier’s brain and ended the agony. The scavenger grumbled and continued extracting his prizes undisturbed.”

That’s war as waged by the libby-wibbies in the days of Roosevelt and Truman, who miracuously escaped prosecution for war crimes.

The extract is from “The War An Intimate History 1941-1945″ by Geoffery C. Ward and Ken Burns. An excellent book, btw.

Taken by people who were disobeying orders, and who have been tried and punished. Their abuses were uncovered, investigated, and punished by the military.

For someone self-named “Liar”, this comment is appropriate. I count 4 lies in one sentence.
1. Cheney never said he was in favor of torture.
2. Bush is the “decider”.
3. Tendentious? It appears to me to be an even-handed look at the evidence of torture.
4. And it obviously wasn’t proven beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Liar, go back to your William Ayers Fan Club website.
