Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted May 25, 2004 While I know that POWs don't have many rights, I'm not sure if having a diet that agrees with their religion is one of them. I kind of draw the line with that stuff anyway. Should we also stop preventing them from shooting us? Because they too believe that's part of their religion.

Ripper 0 Report post Posted May 25, 2004 well, its against our beliefs of human decency to eat other humanbeings. If we had people that were captured and they made them start eating human ass cheek, are you saying "Aw, buddy, its not that bad!" The only reason they are feeding them pork is to mock their religion. And once again as a reminder: They might not all be guilty. They are basically going: FUCK your religion. we are the united states BITCHES. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest MikeSC Report post Posted May 25, 2004 Maybe, if pork was the only thing offered as a meal, it might be conscrued as insulting at worst. Torture is not being offered pork, its being beaten while tied to a pole (a Saddam favorite), having a hose turned on while its down your throat (a technique treasured in the Phillipenes), being forced to drink motor oil (a common tactic by the Iranian SAVAK), being forced to stand naked in a freezing room with the air-conditioning going full blast (done by those progressive Singaporians), spending four years sitting absolutely still on a tiny stool made of hard rope that cuts into your skin (our 2008 Olympic hosts, the Chinese), having your balls hooked up to, and shocke with, a car battery (loved by our Turkish allies), being forced to eat spoonfuls of human and animal shit (those friendly Khmer Rouge guys) and I could go on but you get the point. You ask me, I'd take pork over that sort of crap any day of the week. Saddam ALSO liked breaking people's backs by basically tying them to fans and having guards twist the lower halves of their body the opposite direction. But, hey, at least he didn't make anybody eat pork chops. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest INXS Report post Posted May 25, 2004 Making them eat pork amounts to abuse and could be described as torture - the reason they were made to eat pork is that it is not allowed by their religion. Yes, eating food is torture. Let 'em starve. Why don't you go back to never posting? -=Mike Mike, you're being ignorant yet again. They weren't fed pork just because it's what the prison cook decided that was what was on the menu that day - it was done as a deliberate act of abuse. To play this as "we were feeding them, what more do they want?" is absurd. This revalation is a part of the torture scandal not merely a press release on prisoner's diet.

kkktookmybabyaway 0 Report post Posted May 25, 2004 He really is George W. HITLER. I bet ol' Adolf didn't feed the Jews in those camps pork... ESPN SCRUBS HUNTER S. THOMPSON BUSH BASH Monday May 24 2004 17:50:09 ET Hunter S. Thompson's ESPN column was scrubbed of controversy late Monday afternoon when online editors worried the famed gonzo journalist had gone too far. In a column entitled, "Let's Go to the Olympics," Thompson went off on the Abu Ghraib prison picture scandal, exclaiming: "Not even the foulest atrocities of Adolf Hitler ever shocked me so badly as these [Abu Ghraib] photographs did." But after being linked to the DRUDGE REPORT, a top editor demanded the sentence be immediately edited --without Thompson's okay, according to an ESPN.com staffer. "Hunter can go too far sometimes," the Bristol-based ESPN employee told the DRUDGE REPORT. The cleansed paragraph now reads: "These horrifying digital snapshots of the American dream in action on foreign soil are worse than anything even I could have expected. I have been in this business a long time and I have seen many staggering things, but this one is over the line. As with the original, Thompson still concludes with the thought: "Now I am really ashamed to carry an American passport." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
