From http://www.vf.com. How does it feel to be "aggressively interrogated"? Christopher Hitchens found out for himself, submitting to a brutal waterboarding session in an effort to understand the human cost of America's use of harsh tactics at Guantánamo and elsewhere. VF.com has the footage. Related: "Believe Me, It's Torture," from the August 2008 issue, http://www.vanityfair.com/poli... conducted by David Rose and filmed by Arya Surowidjojo.

Disrespecting their memory? Ha! You need to spend a couple days in the boots of a Marine. Human rights for who? The savages who murdered 3,000 Americans on 9/11? The savages who behead innocent contractors on TV? The savages who hide behind women and children like cowards? Like I said, we should be ripping the finger nails off of these sonsabitches.

The term Hajji barely offends me, it's the attitude in which you disregard the illegality of torture. I give you all the condolences in the world, and I believe your brother and his fallen comrades deserve our respect and loyalty, despite the fact that I do not support the war effort in Iraq. You need to consider, though, that by allowing this kind of torture, we're disrespecting his memory. Do you think he would have approved of the nation he died fighting for abandoning basic human rights?

So it bothers you that I used the term "Hajjis" to describe the bastards who killed my brothers? If it were up to me, we'd be ripping the finger nails off of these pricks.

Wow.

Mr. Freek, I am a 100% American mutt who grew up in a community with more Arabs per capita than NYC. I can assure you that there are many, many more "Hajjis" serving in our armed forces than you would expect. The issue is whether or not we as Americans, claiming to be morally upright individuals, condone of the use of torture on our captives. Do you also approve of the treatment of Allied POWs during WWII at the hands of the Nazis? They started with "simulated" genocide by mass emigrating.

I thought atheists were supposed to be afraid of death =P hehe....

Torture or not, I'm not losing any sleep over the fact that water is being dumped down the noses of Hajjis who killed my brothers.

Good point.I see they planned things out to a T."Famous controversial guy?" "Check.""Event publicized?" "Check.""Film crew?" "Check."Balaclavas?" "Check." Foolproof!

Balaclavas? Imagine something had gone wrong, you wouldn't want to have a video of yourself killing Christopher Hitchens, not if you value your liberty.
