@@dcypher3657 It's not about what they do. It's about what the US government does. If it has standards and principles, it has to live by them. According to Title 18 of the US State Code, torture is "an act committed by a person acting under the color of law specifically intended to inflict severe physical or mental pain or suffering (other than pain or suffering incidental to lawful sanctions) upon another person within his custody or physical control", and if you read on, the threat of pain of suffering falls under that definition. Waterboarding is the threat of physical harm, which causes mental suffering, and is undeniably torture. Now, the question becomes: does the US government commit acts of torture? If the answer is no, then there should be no waterboarding. If the answer is "no, unless...", then it's yes. Because there is no such thing as suspending your principles - otherwise they're simply not principles anymore. If you think what ISIS (or domestic right-wing terrorists for that matter) does, should directly result in whatever "means to an end" can be put to use, then that's a position to choose. But then you're saying: the US government practices torture to get information in certain cases. The implication of that is that the US would immediately have to get off their high horse on any other human rights subject, and has no moral highground anymore to tell other nations what to do. And I don't think the US government is ready to relinquish that moral highground. THAT'S the ballgame. Not kindergarten logic of the familiar format of "yes but he...!!!"

Any practice designed to make the victim feel like they are in danger constitutes torture. That’s why mock executions are a form of psychological torture

Tim is obviously a brave guy and a warrior but either through a bit of a deficit in intelligence or extreme bias due to his chosen profession and traumas, he is ironically one of the last people you'd want making these sorts of estimations and decisions. Water boarding is unequivocally, unambiguously torture. Giving someone the sensation of drowning is torture. You can subjectively say it's not as bad as chopping someone's finger off, or whatever, but it's clearly torture.

If a man with strong resolve can withstand something like waterboarding, and that's one of the factors that decides whether or not something is torture, then you could apply that to any kind of enhanced interrogation techniques. A man, with strong enough resolve could take beatings, starvations, nails driven through their hands, etc. so does that not count as torture either?

Those aren't even close to the same unless you are trying to say that a man with a strong resolve can survive being starved, or his resolve can make him impervious to nails. The question was never about if he would crack and give up information, it was that the physical sensation is not as bad as people make it out to be and it's more about your mentality. Driving nails through your hands or surviving on zero calories is not about your mentality. The only thing waterboarding actually does is scare someone into thinking they might die. Let me repeat. The ONLY thing waterboarding does is scare someone. That is what he showed. Starving, beating, or nails through the hands is not just scaring someone. THAT is the difference between torture and this.

Waterboarding is all fun and games until Ahmed decides to put a towel on your face. try calling it harmless then

Pouring water on someone's face isn't waterboarding. Strapping a person to a board, tilting the board with the head lower, putting a soaked rag in their mouth, putting another soaked rag on their face, pouring huge amounts of water on their chest, (even hold their nose closed), and pour water on the face and mouth. You keep doing it until their lungs almost fill with water. They drown and you revive them, punch them in the stomach to help them expel the water as one way to do so (often ribs are cracked). You keep doing that for hours and hours, days and days. This does cause one to say anything that they think that you want to hear to make it stop. People that test it often aren't doing it the real way. Plus you know that it will stop because it's just a test. You know that it won't last hours or days. You know for a fact that medical attention is on hand. People care if you lose consciousness or die.

GREAT example of how a quote can give the opposite impression of reality when taken out of context.

If you volunteer it's not torture, if you are held against your will and have no chance to escape and feel the terror of the inability to fight back or have the waterboarding stop, then without a doubt it's torture. It has nothing to do with toughness or being a macho dude.

Just because you're not slamming nails through someones hand does not mean it isn't torture. Pretty sure if I got waterboarded I would crumble immediately and be scarred for life from the experience. Torture is the act of inflicting severe pain or suffering on somone, don't know about you but I would call being upside down in a hostile environment with a constant sensation of drowning suffering. His argument basically came down to 'it's not hardcore enough to be torture'

Soldiers get PTSD that have never been "physically harmed"

In an industrial job, I drilled a hole through my thumbnail into the bone, by accident. 20-years later, I STILL remember it. Same employer, I also nearly cut a finger off on a grinder (which was re-attached)...again, I STILL remember it. Being tied down KNOWING either were about to happen...and maybe worse...yeah, it's torture, so either accept it, or stop doing it. I spent 21-years in the Marine Corps and retired after more than one 'Desert Campaign'...I've seen war, and most of what Tim Kennedy has seen...it doesn't change anything...either ENGAGE COMBATANTS in war, or don't. THIS IS EXACTLY what a 'primarily asynchronous warfare' (special forces) war looks like...abductions, torture, limited strikes...and MINIMAL IMPACT to any real facilitator of the war itself. Either we 'are better than them', or 'we are them'...there are far worse things than death...and MANY of the tactics employed now are just that. It's also how we ended up dealing with torture in Vietnam...because S-2 (intelligence) decided SpecOps had to validate 'enemy dead' by removing ears...never realizing the theological impact this caused (to disfigure the dead is abomination, as they will return in reincarnation in the same dismembered state). We are merely teaching greater evil to be returned to us. Death in war is often honorable...dismemberment or torture are tools of the weak and dishonorable that will return to you with terrible interest, in most cases.

wow. thx for that input. this comment should be put somewhere prominent.

“Waterboarding is just like pouring water on your face.” Kennedy

The misunderstanding is that waterboarding is not just pouring water on someone's face. It's primarily a form of psychological torture with a physical component, similar to sleep deprivation or confinement (3-foot cube). I've seen the results of real waterboarding and it's torture. One person committed suicide because he couldn't live with the nightmares. Another has trouble drinking (any liquid) because he always thinks he's going to drown. These are ex-military... Rangers, etc. and ex-State Department, as well as professional civilians. They are not cowards and they are not wusses... they've been tortured. The person has to believe that you're not going to stop until you tell them what they want to hear. The person needs to inhale some water and keep on pouring. You have to know that there is a very real chance that you will die. That's waterboarding. It leaves people seriously messed up in the head and unable to function as a normal person... usually for life. I understand what Kennedy is saying, but Rogan gets it... The whole point is that you don't know how it's going to turn out. It might not be physically scarring, but it's still torture. You'll say anything to make it stop when you believe that it won't stop until you talk (or die). It's worth noting here that there are plenty of ways to torture someone physically that leave no visible marks or other physical evidence. This whole argument against waterboarding being torture is simply the CIA and State Department wanting to be able to say that waterboarding is not technically torture so that they can feel like they're not wrong in using it. It's like justifying stealing by redefining it as "borrowing indefinitely." Similarly, the buzzword "Discomfort" is just another way of saying "Pain" that allows torturers to justify what they do in their own minds. It's worth noting that prominent English dictionaries as well as international organizations do not specify that torture must specifically involve physical pain... torture can be either mental or physical. Most commonly, as in the case of waterboarding, torture is a combination of mental (psychological) and physical discomfort/pain.

I'm 100% sure I could break anyone via waterboarding. If done correctly, it is absolutely torture, especially if combined with sleep deprivation, which real waterboarding is. The only question is, does torture get you the "truth" or the answers you want to hear?

s a he’s been in war countless number of times and if u ever heard his war stories he tells a story where around 300 fighters surrounded him and his team. They were in a gunfight for 3 days and lost guys and everyone of them thought they were going to die. Imagine being in that situation having to fight and kill people, knowing your going to die and also seeing your best friends get killed right in front of your eyes. In my opinion that is torture. He said he’s seen people get tortured and if u see that u can still have feeling about how that person is feeling. He probably is more qualified to talk about this that 99.9% if people alive

you cant interview a military guy to know whether its torture, you just cant because he's going to support his own cause and the ways they use to fight for it

I respect his service but I don't think he's thinking clearly here. If you do something to make a person feel like their drowning, and they can't make it stop, that's torture. Is it the worst torture? I know there are worse things you can do to people but it's still torture.

the problem is if you were actually captured, you wouldnt know you were being waterboarded. for all you know your captors could be trying to drown you...thats literally why waterboarding works, it makes someone think they're being drowned. if you know you're being waterboarded then you know there is no risk of drowning.

Waterboarding is mental torture not physical. It's the idea and feeling of drowning without actually doing so. Tim is right its not torture. Once you realize you aren't going to drown it loses effectiveness. He is also right that it will never work on someone who is firm in their beliefs. He is also right that torture also doesn't work so by proxy ultimately waterboarding will fail. When you torture someone they will more likely just tell you what you want to hear rather than the truth making it unreliable information
