The irony will be this: will liberals who denounced torture denounce this? will conservatives who applauded torture applaud this? I am sure we will see major hypocrisy.

No, I'm just looking at what our Constitution defines as the rights of American citizens. I fully understand that there times when people need to be killed, but if they are American citizens, then there is a clearly defined process for going about that. If they are foreign citizens who have been defined as being citizens of nations that we are at war with, then they fall into the category of being an enemy who gets killed on sight, unless they surrender. If they are foreign citizens of nations that we are not at war with, then the lines start getting fuzzy about whether or not we should be allowed to kill them. You want to ignore these differences and say that they all fall into the same category, when the plain and simple truth is that they most certainly DO NOT.

FYI fact check POST:
Someone was asking about proof of deaths by torture or interrogation. It's not a left right right issue folks it's a state against the people issue during the Bush/Obama reign we've had plenty of death in custody and then outright murder assassinations. Various groups have acquired DOD records that do show that at least 12 people died under "harsh interrogation" and more than that in custody in Afghanistan and Iraq. the Pravda like MSM doesn't like to make some news like that to public ,especially when they've got a juicy Kim Kardasin story to run instead. What's Kim doing toDAY baby? anyway... 7. US Operatives Torture Detainees to Death in Afghanistan and Iraq - Project Censored | Project Censored heres an except from 1 Quote:

A conspiracy site Mr. Wonder? I went there and tried to find anything on the internet about Jensen and Phillips but there is nothing other than what is written on the site. I also noticed some of the contributors and saw Noam Chomsky. I can't take this site seriously, sorry.

did look at the DOD docs Liberty? And 'Project Censored' is not a conspiracy site man. get a grip. they are mainly a NewsMedia repeater like drudge. And it's NOT the source of the story even, just a messenger. And not the only source i give, if you notice The story is based on FOIA docs FROM the gov't. source docs and records. DOD autopsy reports.
