"We tortured [Mohammed al-]Qahtani," said Susan J. Crawford, in her

why I did not refer the case" for prosecution.


Did we put an eye out? Beat him black and blue? Put him on the rack?, cut a off a finger,
arm, leg or head off? Castrate him? Brand, whip, crush? Drag him behind a humvee until
dead?

How about putting him in ropes like McCain and the other POW's from Vietnam?

Did we starve him? Expose him to disease? Did we bring his family to Gitmo and torture
them in front of him.

Got a bit cold did he? How cold? How long, any tissue damage? I froze my arse off today
working on my car outside.

Did we torture him or just give him a crappy day, a day that those he helped kill will
never have again be it good or bad?

Maybe we should have used Stalin's advice, no man, no problem and just put him in a trench
with a round in his head to tell no tales? That is the way of those that actually torture
people.

Or your brother?

Or your father?
