You stated it was torture correct? So you must know from personal experience how severe and extreme the pain is. So please tell everyone how your waterboarding experience was?
I've stated several times that I do not base my conclusion on any personal assessment of what getting waterboarded is like to say it is torture; but principally on the fact that the US Govt prosecuted people as war criminals for torture for doing it.
Really then you would think it was atrocious for JFK to authorize waterboarding in the 60's?
Probably.
