I severed in the United States Army as an officer for 4 years during the Vietnam Conflict where on patrol in 1967 I  captured an NVA officer after a battle and was later wounded there in another action. During my training we underwent escape and evasion training and studied the rules of warfare that had been developed for prisoners of war. Which almost no aggressor forces (NVA, Cubans) followed. In principle there are two classes of prisoners uniformed and non uniformed. Uniformed are the official military members of any country and thereby governed by international laws. Uniformed military are to be treated by these developed standards which do not allow for Enhanced Interrogation Techniques  EIT’s in my opinion but  I do not consider these to be torture by the way!

There is however a different class of prisoners which are spy’s and terrorists. This class has never been a protected class and should not be included with regular uniformed military. Terrorists in particular are a particularity bad category and should not be protected from Enhanced Interrogation Techniques!

War is a dirty business and if you want a military to protect you than you must also give them the ability to kill the enemy where ever they find them. They do this nasty job for their family friends and country but if the political class turns on them as is now happening don’t expect them to fight for you as they have in the past.Don’t let cleaver attorneys redefine everything use common sense and make them use it as well! Terrorists have given up their right from  Enhanced Interrogation Techniques don’t change that or a lot more of you will die in future attacks.

President Obama and the progressive Democratic are destroying the country that the founders developed. You have no idea how bad it can get if they complete this process. The ability to protect the citizens was one of those things and it included an armed citizenry. The American system was the best one ever developed as any serious study of political Philosophy will show.

If you change what we have which is what is being done now than you will be very very sorry after you realize what you allowed to happen. Political in general are not to be trusted and that was the point to the constitution that we have(had) limit their power! For tends to corrupt and the great the power the government has that more corrupt it becomes.

ALWAYS ERROR ON THE SIDE OF SMALLER GOVERNMENT
