Who are you to tell the Iranian government how to run its affairs. If Roxana Saberi has valuable information that could protect Iranian interests, then they should be able to waterboard her whether they charged her or not. The decision is theirs not yours.
I am glad someone does irony on this board. Start pouring the water....
Sure is, if the US can do it, anyone can do it.
After all, Cheney said that waterboarding wasn't torture.
No one who was waterboarded by the US was actually convicted of anything, were they?
If you lived in America and remembered 9/11...you would know that we Americans really do not care about terrorist being waterboarded for information!! Or maybe I should speak for my self...I as an American really do not care!!
Based upon what I have seen in the mainstream media, all of these so-called yellow journalists should be waterboarded, and often. Maybe after having their head plunged into water numerous times they will begin to realize that their opinion is not news. But I am not holding my breath.

I tend to agree with you. They report opinion and call it fact. They omit facts that do not support their agenda and without fail slander their own country in favor of such as Iran. I wonder what the hard left reporters will have to say about this.
I'll take a stab at it. The US Gov leaked information to Iran that Roxana was an employee of the CIA. Sure makes perfect sense.

I remember, and do care about civil rights for suspected terrorists . . . ever think about the chance that you might be considered a threat based on a political opinion that you might post here? Would you take favorably to being tortured because you are suspected of terrorist leanings?
I take comfort in the civil rights spelled out in the US Constitution.
Are you saying that Iran doesn't regularily torture its political dissidents? My god, how naive if you are taking that position.
I bet you believed Achmedenijiad when he said that Iran had no homosexuals....except for those dead ones hanging on street corners...
how many people did Roxana Saberi torture or kill? What type of valuable information does she hold that could possibly stop the next terrorist attack on Iran?
What terrorists attacks did she help orchestrate?
According to Iranian intelligence reports, the information that she helped leaked led to the death of thousands of Iranians... and were they to find out exactly what she told the US government, they could stop it from happening again. I think that justifies her being waterboarded 2 or 300 times... no?
As far as I am concerned what happens to her happens to her. She was either very stupid for going to such a country or naive beyond measure. Either way she took her chances and will receive the rewards of such risks. I really don't believe anyone who ignores travel warnings deserves a moment of pity. Welcome to Iran Roxana and now you know why it is on the list of countries to avoid. In america Journalists can get away with just about anything. No true in much of the world we live in.
My point being if the waterboard her its none of my business and not of my concern. I do believe that she will be lucky if that is all that they do to her. Beautiful woman, an infidel by their measure? I am pretty sure they will have very few limits on what will be allowed.
I see you've never been beyond the white picket fence......

What info did she give the US that helped the US kill thousands of Iranians? I had no idea we had ever been at war with Iran
Its actually all moot. Iran tortured under the Shah and they continue to torture under the Mullahs. If they want to, they will.
