better late than never

[Wisha Haddan H3]

There is one other thing I want to clear up.

I don't hate the government or the military. My parents served in the army during the Korean war. My brother was in the Air Force during the 1st Gulf War. My nephew is joining the Navy. I'm proud of them all. And for years, I studied my brains out so I could fly fighter jets in the Air Force. It about killed me when my eyes went bad.

I just don't believe that torture generates solid intel, helps our cause in the middle east, or makes us better people or a better nation.

So no, H2rocks, I don't want your Marine friend to knock and say please before asking politely if there are any IEDs in the house. He better kick down the door, kill the ones he has to and secure the rest. But I hope to God the intel was based on something more reliable than an address somebody made up so we would stop drilling his fingernails.

That is all.
