I’m sending this note in connection with our Conservative Enthusiast Group, which meets monthly to discuss issues such as this. We’d like your participation in our presentations as a presenter and/or a listener / questioner. If you have some thoughts on issues that you feel need further exposure or discussion, please contact Mark S at msussm@msn.com to coordinate a meeting date and time allocation for your briefing.
This blog is largely in Powerpoint format. The subject is the morality of using waterboarding to extract critical intelligence from captured Terrorists. There has been a fair amount reported on this issue in the news recently. Most of the Media have been critical of this method. But the media assessment is usually made in the absence of any cogent counter-argument. In fact there is an implicit assumption that there is no room for counter-argument. But is this really true? Arguments are made in the presentation below that challenge that assumption.
The link below will take you to the Powerpoint charts. You can click on the icon below the chart, "full” (i.e., screen); then use the bottom arrows to navigate from chart to chart.
Here's the link; please discuss the issue with your friends. Pass along your thoughts to your Congressional Representatives.
