The time line of stories (and it’s not over folks) just continues to feed conspirists(?). With all the changing stories, who among those who believes the Federal Government is so well organized that it can create a big fat conspiracy like Osama is still alive, would believe that he is dead after all of this?
In other thoughts…
There is a lot of talk out their about the enhanced interrogation techniques and how those led us directly to bin Laden and how BECAUSE these led us directly to bin Laden, they are ok.
Sorry folks, I’m not buying.
Geneva writes out the rules of signatories concerning war prisoners. Al Qaeda never signed on, nor did it follow the rules without signing on. That being the case, and remember we want to encourage combatants to sign on, enhanced interrogations were allowed.
Geneva calls what was done “torture” and many, including myself, can disagree with that but it is what it is.
So I hope that if a signatory and Geneva follower of Geneva were at war with us we would not use what Geneva is calling torture even though (in 10 years) it may have worked in this instance.
