Learn about waterboarding in this brief discussion from NPR. Find out that an American officer was relieved of command for waterboarding a prisoner during the Spanish-American war. Read about the Japanese officer who received 15 years in prison from a war crimes tribunal for waterboarding a US citizen during World War II. Learn about the American soldier court-martialed during the Vietnam War, because he supervised the waterboarding of a captured North Vietnamese soldier.
And, most revealing of all, read about what it's like to be waterboarded in the transcript of testimony by a victim.
Maybe then, Mike, you can figure out whether waterboarding is torture.
