Better in the Political Forum?

 

Move it if you feel you can't keep it non-political.

 

It seems inherently political.

 

daylight time, standard time, torture time

It is political. To claim otherwise is disingenuous.

 

I don't know, you could talk about international law and what is considered torture.

That doesn't seem political to me.

 

It's political. And I've moved it appropriately.

So, then... now that 83.3% of the responsive posts thus far have been about that, and not the intended subject of the thread, does anyone have anything to say about what the thread-starter intended the discussion to be about?

 

International law is political.

 

Free to say what you want.

So, now you are free to talk political or not.

Go for it!

I like a good discussion, I don't really care what catagory it is in.

 

Yeah torture is occuring in the country..my brother found a website and showed it to me...it was just TERRIBLE it's completely sad they put this stuff on the internet...it was Americans beheading an Iraqi and they showed EVERYTHING up close...I couldn't even watch the whole thing made me sick.

 

Do you have a URL?

 

I will have to ask my brother about it being he is the one that found it...i will try to get it by tomorrow.

 

Thank you.

 

Okay I just got off the phone with him and he said it's on www.orgish.com

So I went there to see if it would be easy to find and it came up with a bunch of free porn........so I dunno maybe they got rid of the site. I will have him look for it when he gets home.

 

Melissa, Americans have not beheaded any Iraqis. Here's a couple links to clear this up:

This one explains who is being accused and which Iraqi official is being questioned regarding the matter:

This one explains that the Iraqi-on-Iraqi abuse was discovered by U.S. forces, not committed by U.S. forces:

As you can see, the torture was being done by Shia Iraqis to Sunni Iraqi prisoners. The minority Sunni used to be in power under the Hussein regime, now the majority Shia are in charge.

The only ones that did beheadings were insurgents (read that as "terrorists") who are not Americans and not part of the interim Iraqi government. Further, the people they beheaded were not prisoners, they were victims of kidnapping by terrorists.

Your brother is just yanking your chain, looks that way especially after he sent you a porn link as "proof". Next time you see your brother, maybe smack him upside the head for playing a mean joke on his sis.

Thanks for the info, but I did watch the video clip of the beheading..I didn't sit and watch the whole entire thing because I just about threw up and this was a quite a few months back so I am thinking maybe they took it off the internet or moved it to a different site..who knows the people beheading the iraq looked and talked like americans...I will talk to my brother tonight and see if he can find it because I really don't want to watch it again.

 

SOrry the site is orgish.org I did go to it and im sure it's the correct site but every time I click something my virus blocker pops up saying it gave me a virus and wants me to delete it so Im not going to continue to find the exact url..

 

That's www.ogrish.com though I don't see there this precise beheading. Beheadings to suit most tastes but not this particular beheading.

 

That's because there IS no video of American's beheading Iraqis, and melissa is full of s***, as is her brother....

I'm not on here to sit and argue, so you going to say im full of shit is a little immature. I have NOOO reason to sit here and lie about it. I was just stating I did see a video of this whether you believe me or not I could really care less. It was HORRIBLY disgusting and really wished I never saw it. And it's SAD they post anything of that sort on the internet or anywhere for people to see. Even yet sadder this is happening in our world no matter who is being beheaded by who. People who want to watch that stuff really have something wrong in their heads..that;s just my own opinion.

And to the reply before this I didn't mean this to do anything with the exact article for this thread I didn't even read the article for the thread I just saw beheadings in Iraq or whatever the subject is so I put my 2 cents in on what I saw on the internet a few months ago.

Moreover, do you think they are going to sit here and show us or even tell us everything that is going on over there?? PROBABLY NOT. I'm sure there are many worse things we just are not informed of.
