We tortured a number of Taliban Jim, just because they're bad guys doesn't make it not illegal under the Geneva Convention.

the DOJ looked into it, and decided it wasnt illegal under the geneva convention. there was a legal

if you’re telling me you wouldn’t water board someone to save your kids, you’re lying. if nuking two cities wasn’t a war crime, and it wasn’t, water boarding is nothing.
if you have a terrorist and have reasonable suspicion he can prevent an attack, it would
be immoral not to waterboard him.
how many american children are you prepared to sacrifice on the altar of not waterboarding jihadists, exactly? for me the answer is exactly zero.
