    That number comes from a guy who did the interrogating. I think his opinion is better than either of ours. It's not my opinion, it's a nubmer I'm using from his quote. I'm sure there's room for error.. it could higher :D

    ONE! ONE ex-soldier said this. I say it never happened and because I say it never happened, therefore it is true. Someone will beleive me, I know! It fits YOUR agenda, which is to use it to bash your country and troops with.

    So you disagree with the geneva convention ?
    40 years ? where did you pick that number from?

    There is turture going on in Iraq, but out of all the troops out there it is a very small % I assume.

    The problem is that the fastest way to lose the population (those that the soldiers are fighting for) is to let them believe that it goes unpunished or is covered up.

    That's all BIASED mumbo-jumbo!

    First-hand accounts just get in the way of preconceived beliefs!

    They're not even willing to watch a program on PBS! If Rupert Murdoch doesn't own it, they wont watch it.

    The 20,000+ dead is not from any terrorist bombing, its from our initial bombings and people our troops have "accidently" shot.

    Does all the above BS means that you were never in army and you have never fought for your freedom, country or anything else? :rolleyes:

    I am not surprised since REAL soldiers don't come up with such nonsense as your postings. Only people who have experienced the war through TV or video games would like wars and killing.

    I beleive that is what yo-yo's desire is. Doesn't matter that it's not true. Only the message and end result matter.

    You are here to receive the wisdom of your elders. :D


    I was born in the summer of '69.


    Older people tend to be less ignorant, just due to the years they have had to absorb knowledge. They also tend to be more wise, because they have had more opportunity to distill that knowledge into wisdom.

    Of course, many people seem quite averse to both knowledge and wisdom!

    Yes but older people are also set in their ways and more often than not unwilling to learn, or objectively look at a situation beyond their current beliefs :)

    Which line?


    There is torture going on right here in this thread...


    So let's see... who is guilty...

    1. The U.S. Army, which tries and convicts those guilty of torture.

    2. The Liberal media, which invents and spreads unsubstantiated and untrue stories of torture and imaginary coverups?
