Radbot posted:So how is this report partisan, as morons on the right have been accusing? Probably because it points out that this was done under a republican president, and that would look bad.

Chamale posted:It's definitely worth watching the video. "It's absolutely torture." This is one thing I always found really sad. The second you put anyone under these situations, they'll tell you it is torture, but you still have assholes like Steve King who can't put two and two together. I always found this quote telling: quote:Waterboarding is a controlled drowning that, in the American model, occurs under the watch of a doctor, a psychologist, an interrogator and a trained strap-in/strap-out team. It does not simulate drowning, as the lungs are actually filling with water. There is no way to simulate that. The victim is drowning. How much the victim is to drown depends on the desired result (in the form of answers to questions shouted into the victim’s face) and the obstinacy of the subject. A team doctor watches the quantity of water that is ingested and for the physiological signs which show when the drowning effect goes from painful psychological experience, to horrific suffocating punishment to the final death spiral.
