One wonders where blatham's moral outrage is when almost everyone except the US treats prioners worse than the US does, e.g. using them for blackmail and then cutting off their heads.
Brandon, easy on the hyperbole. "..almost everyone except the US treats...."
Couple of points. It's dangerous to want to compare a liberal democracy such as the US with a bunch of murderous, vicious, feudal, mediaeval, bestial assassins such as AQ and its associates. There is - or should not be - any reason for comparison.
Secondly, I'm pretty sure that the people that carry out these barbarous acts are in the minority. You have perpetrated a calumny on the rest of the civilised world by lumping "almost everyone" in with them.
