What Are We Willing To Become To Feel Safe?

Here's a YouTube video of the day on the practice of water boarding. The Wall Street Journal editorial board has declared that what we are watching below isn't even "close to torture." The SS were just deploying "alternative interrogation techniques."

Most of the interrogation techniques are top secret. Waterboarding is one of the few we know about.

Alan Dershowitz says that torture should be used and authorized only under a ticking bomb scenario and only when overseen directly by the president or a Supreme Court justice.

Not a bad suggestion.
