A Word on Torture

For now, go read Philip Zelikow at Foreign Policy ‘s Shadow Government blog , and Conor at The American Scene . For later, further comment from me. I suppose I can mention here that since I’m on record as saying that one dunk at the waterboard is not torture, whereas three dunks is, I judge 130+ dunks clearly to be torture, regardless of whether the issue is whether we ought to torture or not.
