What do you think Jesus would say/do about suicide bombers and islamists who are willing to kill over their beliefs? Do you think he would be saying to "love" someone who attacks school busses full of children, attacks schools, etc?
Remember Beslan? That's what Jihadis do. They target the weakest elements of society. What would Jesus say? i really doubt he would tell people to love someone who would target and murder children.
Whatever happened to Sean Hannity's offer to be waterboarded to make $ for the troops' families?
Olbermann's offer was quick. Besides the $1,000 per second, Olbermann said he'd double it if Hannity acknowledges he feared for his life and admits that waterboarding is torture.
"The idea of putting somebody in a position they have volunteered for, for charity, to respond to their own unsupportable claims, is in many ways priceless," Olbermann said.

All those successful suicide attacks would seem to indicate one of two things:
a) Allah is stronger than the Christian God
b) Allah and the Christian God are one and the same, but he prefers Muslims

Why does Jesus make us handle it causing us to commit immoral and inhumane acts that desensitize and destroys our souls?
In the war crimes tribunals that followed Japan's defeat in World War II, the issue of waterboarding was sometimes raised. In 1947, the U.S. charged a Japanese officer, Yukio Asano, with war crimes for waterboarding a U.S. civilian. Asano was sentenced to 15 years of hard labor.
"All of these trials elicited compelling descriptions of water torture from its victims, and resulted in severe punishment for its perpetrators," writes Evan Wallach in the Columbia Journal of Transnational Law.

According to Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., himself a torture victim during the Vietnam War, the water board technique is a "very exquisite torture" that should be outlawed.
Perhaps you could volunteer for waterboarding somewhere since it's an okay way to spend some time.
Yet the funny thing is that liberals would think that depriving someone of sleep or "Waterboarding" someone to get information on an imminent terrorist attack that will cost dozens of lives is less moral than killing your own child because you got drunk and it wasn't convenient for you.
Your post serves more as an insight into your mind than as an indictment of "liberals."
Coercive interrogation techniques and waterboarding are not torture.
Most experts agree that waterboarding, which was used at least as early as the Spanish Inquisition, is torture. As such, it violates the US anti-torture law 18 USC Section 2340 (a) as well as US treaties.
Notwithstanding those who deny that waterboarding is torture, no one can seriously dispute that waterboarding constitutes cruel and degrading treatment of detainees, a practice that was outlawed by the War Crimes Act of 1996. That act was designed to carry out US obligations under the Geneva Conventions and makes it a federal crime to violate certain provisions of the War Crimes Act.

...but since you have determined the truth based on your firsthand experience either as the torturer or tortured individual, I guess we'll take your word for it.

Yes--it is his opinion, and it's one that our court system shares. The fact that libs are quoting laws from other countries is irrelevant.
