Misunderstanding Torture

The Khmer Rouge practiced torture as an exquisite and horrifying method of subjugating even the mildest forms for dissent. Waterboarding was a regular treat for any dissident who didn't end up in the Killing Fields. What the Khmer Rough knew, and what other state sponsors of torture know, is that torture is NOT an effective means of extracting actionable intelligence. However, it is a highly effective method of terrorizing people who might be sympathetic to the cause of the person, or persons, being tortured. In other words, torture is really only effective as a means of Terrorism. Yes, that is correct. Terrorism. Why does Rudy support Terrorism? Have we become a bunch of self-hating Americans? No! We just hate all the other Americans who hate other Americans for not hating the Fanatic Jihadist enough. Cazart!
