Tortuous.
It makes me wonder exactly how far they went at Gitmo and Abu Girhab. (Don't know the spelling)
Now a lot of left wingers would hate this sort of thing, and because the U.S. is living in the modern age. We no longer use torture methods.
That would be great if the same could be said for other countries.
The radical Islamists tortured/torture innocent NON-COMBATANTS. At least the people the Americans picked up were caught in the act, possibly a few innocents got through, but people like ISIS take young girls and torture them knowing that they have no information to give them. They do it for propaganda and then call themselves brave after they've burnt a man in a cage to death!
It's all well and good that we've chosen the higher road, it's just a shame the rest of the world didn't get that memo.
