Christians today scare me. It's like their thirst for blood knows no boundaries. I am now convinced that it's everybody's duty to spread the gospel of Atheism and the vital importance of critical thinking.
theres a difference between violent torture and the torture of fear he is talking about. Inflicting fear in your opponent is used in sports! Sean went to a prep-seminary and received a good Catholic education. My dad played hockey with the guy (he's got a good slap shot). He doesn't defend chopping off fingers. Just games that kids play with their siblings in the summer. It saves American lives, whether Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Atheist, or anything else.
If Sean Hannity is a Christian, then I am the Pope of munchkin land. Sean hannity is a follower of the Synagogue of Satan.He is loyal to the criminal Jews who are running America into the ground. WAKE UP AMERICA!! It's JEWS Stupid! THEY are the problem.There is no "New World Order"...it is a JEW World Order. We need to get every single one of them off this planet or the human race is fucked. Eliminate "Israel" = World Peace Forever.The Jew is the source of all the world's biggest problems.
WE WANT TO GIVE THEM A FAIR TRIAL SO WE CAN PROVE THEY ARE GUILTY AND LOCK THEM AWAY FOR A LONG TIME OR PROVE THAT THEY ARE INNOCENT... (personally i would keep them under surveillance if they were released...)
THE TERRORISTS WERE CIVILIANS SO THEY HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS AS CIVILIANS
THE AIM OF THE TERRORISTS WAS TO CHANGE OUR LIVES... BY REMOVING THE RIGHT TO A FAIR TRIAL TO CIVILIANS... WHAT ARE WE DOING... CHANGING OUR LIVES...
Users of Christianity can rationalize anything. For example, the Nazi's, the Germans where Christians. Just because you call your self a Christan does not make you a good person. So just because you call your self a christian and you would do something does not make the act good. Watching them come to these conclusions was like watching a house fall because it's foundation was corrupted. What a pathetic bunch of moral-less chicken hawk cowards.
Wait a minute, Obama condemns torture and is open-minded to suspects getting constitutional rights. I thought these "experts" claim he is just like Bush?
Okay, besides Meghan Mccain lookin' hott she's making some really good points and these guys are going at it full throttle! what is america really doing? What are we going to see next?
psycopaths dont feel emotion. they dont hate. they kill either for kicks or in fascination. "terrorists" clearly feel wronged by america, which means they have a sense of right and wrong and arent psycopaths
The United States should preserve the right to waterboard as a last resort when there is reason to believe they are witholding information that can be used for national security ot save lives!
This title is misleading - Hannity is not quite suggesting this, but he actually sort of sounds reasonable. He doesn't acknowledge waterboarding as torture, which he should, but the terrorists should not be released when they demonstrate intent to kill us. We treat them as human beings while they are in jail, and that's all they deserve, no more, no less.
Check your own laws. You can't charge someone for something he/she might do, only what he/she actually has done.
Further, all criminals have rights; all soldiers have rights. Habeaus corpus & indefinte detention are as basic a human right as any. Rights have always been for those accused for crimes (not in Henry VIII's time but...).
Next they'll jail you by sayin you're "an enemy". That's what Andrew Jackson did in his military courts
@EBanonymous You're right, but the people Hannity is talking about helped plan the 9/11 attack, so I should rephrase: these people demonstrated vicious intent as shown by the outcome of their actions. They aren't innocent, and considering what they've done, I wouldn't release them either. However, I would not take away their rights as criminals as the neocons would. I despise the Christian Right and am not speaking on their behalf; I'm just trying to promote a just course of action.
Maybe they're guilty maybe they're not. It's not relevant. What is important is that all people, regardless of what they are accused of can get justice. As you point out, they argue for removing Habeaus corpus & torture. Their sob stories of "my bro is in Iraq" is dispicable. What does Iraq have to do w/ 2001?
If in an internationally recognised fair trail they are found guilty, they might choose a life sentence. But just saying, "don't release them" is condemning them
That's the issue. They refuse to allow these people to get fair trials becasue much of the evidence would be thrown out of court. That's why they had to release over 90% of people in Guantanamo. They were innocent & the govt couln't prove anything. Only that if released they might do x, y or z. Sorry, but "viscious" or any other intent is just that; it's not a crime to intend it, it's a crime to do it.
Let them be tried & the evidence heard in the Hague if they're so bad.
..try living in one of these countries that really do the what we so call by many here as torture. it's not water board, just CHOPPED OFF HEAD...
or rammed the NY Twin Towers with airplanes is that MASS MURDER....
How did America involved in WW11, Learn anything yet from PEARL HARBOR. For those that point finger here for Christian Faith and Conservative, you must some of those that try to date Charlie Mason and marry him in prison. Remove your head from your arse.....
Toture of any human being for any reason is not compatible with Chrisitian principles, particularly the teachings of Jesus. Hannity you are rediculous.
It says it right in the Bill of Rights that rights are belonging to person not just citizens or residents. Hannity doesn't even know that! No, I think Hannity does know that, which makes him a fraud!
@OmarThePug No, Hannity is right. It doesn't extend to terrorists detained. Person or "people" explicitly refers to citizen of the US. Hence why the preamble begins as "We the People of the United States." If what you are saying is true than temporary workers could carry guns, for instance, and technically elect senators and representatives. Technically, Gitmo detainees have no constitutional rights because they aren't citizens. Whether we give them those is a different story.
Who is S.E. Cupp? How old is she? What does she know about anything? What does Meghan McCain know about anything? Hannity is no Christian. He is a Murdochian/Ailes piece of garbage who never fulfilled his promise to get water boarded for charity. Shit, he didn't even go to college.
These assholes need to read the Geneva Conventions. Any Christian who believes in the merits of torture should renounce their faith, as they have rejected the FUNDAMENTALS of the teachings of Jesus. Thomas Jefferson was not a christian, but believed in the philosophies of the man. Both of these great thinkers would be appalled at the nonsense people like Hannity defecate daily.
These people singly handedly destroy the reputation of religion.
Religion is not good or evil, but it is how it is used is important. Unfortunately, a lot of people use religion as a means to justify malevolence, even though Christ's teachings and the New Testament are founded on the basis of peace and understanding. Jesus was most likely a liberal.
If you had to ask me what the single biggest reason less and less people are going to church would be, I'd say this video, in a nutshell, is why.
And that is what's wrong with America. When ppl use plain emotions instead of a fair law, why wouldn't we be seen as stupid? There is proof beyond reasonable doubt that the men in Gitmo are criminals, yet we torture?
We were going to give them military trials; so far, we haven't done so--and we haven't convicted one single terrorist.
Even the biggest liberal in the world isn't saying let all these guys go. You just follow the basic rules of international law; put some of these guys on trial...make it fair...show them we're 100 times better than them.
Christian conservatives are drooling for the New America: a country where you can simply declare someone a terrorist, then jail them for a life of torture without trial. Reminds me of the Witch Trials...another progressive idea from these wonderful Christians.
another pt. of discussion...Christians do not have a patent on hypocrisy. One can find that anywhere. i have people in my family who are completely anti-Christian, who I guess want to be seen as better...and are some of the cruelist, people. There are people posting comments all over youtube who are some of the cruelist.
There is a good dose of hypocrisy in the church, you're right. If you have encountered that in your own life...let me offer an apology .
These people dont understand Rule of Law and why it is important. The reason we dont torture captured soldiers of other countries is not because we give a shit about those captured prisoners, its because we have upheld geneva conventions, and therefore our own soldiers captured by the enemy are protected under the same international laws. The first country who hurts another countries captured soldiers, just signed the death warrants for thier own Men.
BTW, the terrorists weren't soldiers. They had no uniforms, so Geneva doesn't even cover them.
Also, do you really expect those derka-derka donkey-fuckers GAVE a damn about international law when they tortured our soldiers FIRST? Fuck 'em! No prisoners, then! Happy?
Are you kidding? Killing more people is going to justify the 9/11 attacks? If those are the thoughts everyone has.... Then I have no idea what this world has come to...
You're damned right Hannity!! These creeps had no problem cutting the throats of female flight attendants to instill fear in the passengers and comandeer aircraft to be used as missles to KILL 3000 innocent people. Torture them if it yields crutial information. And fuck what all the moronic Obama zombies think!
"How to Break a Terrorist" by Matthew Alexander. You can thank me after you become a well-informed person who listens to real interrogators rather than a right-wing tool who listens to a loudmouthed college dropout.
Funny how the people who have undergone waterboarding all, unambiguously, call it torture. And how people who have no idea what they're talking about love to beat around the bush.
And where would YOU put them? OUR prisons? OUR prisons where they will STILL be an increased threat? Because even if they never get paroled, the other prisoners they recruit to their filthy islamic cult WILL get out!
Heh. You right-wingers are an ironic and hypocritical bunch. Your profile displays quotes by the founders warning about the dangers of government yet you piss all over the Constitution just like your fallen god, George W Bush, did. You can be a sheep for Hannity's racism and bigotry. I'll stick with the 5th Amendment, thank you very much.
So, not only do you NOT have a solution, you narrow-mindedly accuse me of pissing on the Constitution when I never did. Fallen god Bush? HELLO?! WAKE UP, DUMBASS! Do you seriously believe his low approval ratings came strictly from leftist polls?
You DID piss on the Constitution. The Supreme Court has actually ruled that prisoners held by the US are entitled to Constitutional protections. Those are called facts. Enjoy.
And since your argument is based on the badly exaggerated fear that Muslim extremists are recruiting in prison (by that reasoning, we shouldn't put ANYONE in prison), I see no need to present an alternative.
You stark-raving RETAAAAARD! How badly do you want people NOT to know about the 4 hajji parolees who plotted to bomb 2 synagogues and shoot down planes in NY? Hmm? You really want terrorists mingling with our population? Of course!
What the Supreme Court ruled was only legislating from the bench, which doesn't equal Constitutional.
And why do you still bitch about TERRORIST rights when OUR rights are pissed on by Obastard?
Haha! Your argument is based on a failed plot by four amateurs with no proven connection to any larger terrorist organization.
Do you realize that these people will only be released if they're not found guilty? God forbid that a trial may find some of these people innocent! Innocent until proven guilty, you ass. That's another American value the right has trampled.
And once again, you piss on the Constitution by demeaning the judicial branch for performing its duties.
Oh! It's a FAILED plot, isn't it? Lets not worry about the ONE failed plot! As an addendum, lets not worry about anything else either, because people should keep their lazy, stupid minds fixed on getting more FREE SHIT!
OK, braindead Obama-worshiping ass! You want to talk Constitutional violation? Lets go! Din'cha hear about Obastards rejection of upholding all the non-TARP-fund-holding Chrysler debt firms for not releasing Chrylser's debt for any sum less than what they were LEGALLY ENTITLED?
Haha! Well I can see you're smart enough to know you won't win going down Constitutional road with me! But if your major concern IS terrorists getting three squares and free cable, as opposed to what's going on with the real people of America, how might YOU expect to calm the asshole spirit of those religious hajjis? Anything! Tolerance...surrender...free money for them for each time they say they are offended...anything!
Wow. So much bluster and so little logic and substance. You truly are a product of the Bush years. Tell yourself you won this debate if you wish. You're too stupid and brainwashed to know how illogical your arguments are and how desperate your debating tactics make you look.
Bluster? And what have you returned? The same? Come on! Why can't you pontificate more on those sudden Constitution rights that terrorists have that we the real people of America (who truly deserve them) don't have? Maybe it makes you a happy-boy! Does the rescission of our rights make you a happy-boy?
Well it wasnt Obama who took away our rights and liberties, Bush made the first push towards that with the Patriot Act and the Executive Orders attached to it.
Obama has not returned the rights bush took away which makes me upset with Obama. But republicans are responsible for the situation we are in toay. Not Obama alone.
Oh, how badly you want to blame republicans, but as bad as they've been, democrats have controlled both the house AND the senate since '06. This bullshit talk about Obama "inheriting" Bush's debt, as if he were totally innocent, is just that: bullshit. He voted on the Bush fail-out in '08, so he's a guilty party to this crisis, and now he's making it worse with MORE spending, and unConstitutionally keeping auto shareholders at the bottom of the bankruptcy list when they should come FIRST!
I didnt say Obama was without blame or that he ssome sort of hero. Bush made a bail out plan, i disagreed, obama made a bailout plan, i also disagreed, gov. should not be involved in business to the extent that it has in the last 6 months. Though regulation is needed, Nationalizing busines sis not the way to go.
I hold each acountable for what theyv done, i dont think ones better or worse, simply acountable. Bush has alot to answer for, and so does obama. So plz reply without jumping on me.
OK, fair enough. The said gov take over of business has got me all riled. I haven't seen this much red since Henry Paulson made off like Madoff with our tax dollars. He was given free reign with our tax dollars without judicial review, and he used it to pay off his cronies and then lied to Congress about it...WITHOUT JUDICIAL REVIEW! It's enough to tear your hair out in a rage! Paulson belongs in JAIL!!!
Regulation won't work. We already have sufficient regs, but they weren't being followed.
Some US mil at Guant objected strongly to torture.
The point was to find out IF detainees were Al-Qaeda or patsies. That means a trial, evidence. The vast majority did nothing, were released bcz US had nothing to prosecute. Some were tortured nearly 200 times, 6x /day, 7 days a week.
I would authorize torture of a few of Hannity's guests, like Ledeen or Perle or Kristol. They RECOMMENDED an attack on America before 9-11. What did they know? Why won't Hannity confront them?
Many serving our country have been waterboarded during training. Torture is physical violence, dismemberment. Scaring someone by putting caterpillars on them, or "humiliating" them by forcing prolonged periods of nudity, or playing bad music repeatedly, is not torture. If one defines any psychological discomfort inflicted on one's enemy as torture, no potentially life-saving, violence-preventing information can be extracted.
what if it were a video being played to you of your family members being raped and dismembered 1 by 1 ? all fake of course, and no one really got hurt, but you dont see that as torture ?
You just discredited yourself by bringing up the case that NO ONE thinks is torture. I hope the terrorists arrive on your doorstep first, 'cause you sure have no interest in defending your country. Look up the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy entry for torture- it is clearly established that watching a video of someone you know getting hurt is not torture, even by the expanded UN definition.
hannity didnt suggest anything....he stated his belief that if in order to save lives someone has to be made to fear pain or death....it is justified.he then stated that he was christian...to show that even though he believes the teachings of jesus...he feels that this is a viable means of intel gathering under these conditions and i agree. people hear what they want to and skew it to their side...both libs and conservatives...im sick of both at this point. the talking heads that is.
Of course torture works. Tourture the Mofo until he talks... when he talks you don't just let him go ... you verfify his info. If he tells the truth reward him ... I dunno a couple of Oreos. If it was a lie tornture him some more and worse the second time.
Trust me. when the mofo is ready to tap, if he knows that a lie means he'll get it worse, when he's ready to talk, he'll talk and talk right.
wtf. how about you watch them for a few years and see what they do. because they look different from us and the "fox news" clowns swear they must be terrorist, we have card blanc to do whatever we want to them when somebody that considers themselves more important than us peons tells us that they are terrorists and shuffles them into a "detainment facility" like getmo. its bullsht. its not a nice place. i've been there. its torture, no matter what the talking heads say. inhuman. frustrating.
If you look at their head sizes Hannity and Rush both have swollen melons. We know about the skeletons in Rush's closet, I'm willing to bet Hannity is a drinking the koolaid and rocking the hillbilly crack.
See, it's going to be the average arrogant American Sunday Christian getting in Gods face, and look Jesus straight into his eye's and say, I killed for you lord, I cast out evil in the world for you, now let me into heaven!!
Jesus is going to show your false Christians the door.
Just because you claim to be "born-again" doesn't mean you get a free pass, Jesus message of love and treating enemies kindly, is not what America has learned. You are the anti-Christs saviour described in prophecy.
Want to do mankind a HUGE favor? If you ever find yourself in possession of Alladins lamp, don't wish for world peace, wish for everyone to forget about organized religions for all time and then we will have a chance at lasting world peace.
And it'll be really funny to watch priests, bishops, rabbi's, imams, preachers and all of the other leeches try to cut it in real life.
They had to be tortured for seven years before they 'admitted' to the crimes. I wonder how long it would take to get Hannity to confess to being the ringleader for 9-11.
Again, this only proves that Hannity loves to torture and kill many people and then hide under the christian card. No christian believes in the bible, I repeat, no christian believes in the bible.
Hannity and all right wing conservatives are the ultimate hypotcrites. For one they are pro life but on the other hand they are pro war and pro torture. seems very hypotcritical to me. And these are the people who has lead this country the past 8 years.
@rawman18 you're wrong. It's a national security issue. when there are terrorist trying to KILL innocent Americans, posion our water system, and blow up the most populated places in out country, they DONT DESERVE ANY RIGHTS! They are killing thousands of innocent people, jews, americans, and blowing each other up!
In reality, all the Christians in this world are wearing "What Will Jesus NOT Do" wristbands and "Don't Worry. I'll Just Ask Jesus For Forgiveness" wristbands.
These people aren't Christians. And if the Christians don't speak up, you are going to digg your own grave deeper.

And that is what's wrong with America. When ppl use plain emotions instead of a fair law, why wouldn't we be seen as stupid? There is proof beyond reasonable doubt that the men in Gitmo are criminals, yet we torture?

We were going to give them military trials; so far, we haven't done so--and we haven't convicted one single terrorist.
Even the biggest liberal in the world isn't saying let all these guys go. You just follow the basic rules of international law; put some of these guys on trial...make it fair...show them we're 100 times better than them.

Christian conservatives are drooling for the New America: a country where you can simply declare someone a terrorist, then jail them for a life of torture without trial. Reminds me of the Witch Trials...another progressive idea from these wonderful Christians.

another pt. of discussion...Christians do not have a patent on hypocrisy. One can find that anywhere. i have people in my family who are completely anti-Christian, who I guess want to be seen as better...and are some of the cruelist, people. There are people posting comments all over youtube who are some of the cruelist.
There is a good dose of hypocrisy in the church, you're right. If you have encountered that in your own life...let me offer an apology .

These people dont understand Rule of Law and why it is important. The reason we dont torture captured soldiers of other countries is not because we give a shit about those captured prisoners, its because we have upheld geneva conventions, and therefore our own soldiers captured by the enemy are protected under the same international laws. The first country who hurts another countries captured soldiers, just signed the death warrants for thier own Men.

And as for her brother. He gets captured....hes getting his head cut off. So she should be concerned with Rule of law.

BTW, the terrorists weren't soldiers. They had no uniforms, so Geneva doesn't even cover them.
Also, do you really expect those derka-derka donkey-fuckers GAVE a damn about international law when they tortured our soldiers FIRST? Fuck 'em! No prisoners, then! Happy?

Heh. You right-wingers are an ironic and hypocritical bunch.

Wintermute01001 2 years ago
So, not only do you NOT have a solution, you narrow-mindedly accuse me of pissing on the Constitution when I never did. Fallen god Bush? HELLO?! WAKE UP, DUMBASS! Do you seriously believe his low approval ratings came strictly from leftist polls?
QuartuvLarry 2 years ago
You DID piss on the Constitution. The Supreme Court has actually ruled that prisoners held by the US are entitled to Constitutional protections. Those are called facts. Enjoy.
And since your argument is based on the badly exaggerated fear that Muslim extremists are recruiting in prison (by that reasoning, we shouldn't put ANYONE in prison), I see no need to present an alternative.
Wintermute01001 2 years ago
"Exagerrated fear"?!
You stark-raving RETAAAAARD! How badly do you want people NOT to know about the 4 hajji parolees who plotted to bomb 2 synagogues and shoot down planes in NY? Hmm? You really want terrorists mingling with our population? Of course!
What the Supreme Court ruled was only legislating from the bench, which doesn't equal Constitutional.
And why do you still bitch about TERRORIST rights when OUR rights are pissed on by Obastard?
Oh, I see.
Because you like him really, really HARD!
QuartuvLarry 2 years ago
Haha! Your argument is based on a failed plot by four amateurs with no proven connection to any larger terrorist organization.
Do you realize that these people will only be released if they're not found guilty? God forbid that a trial may find some of these people innocent! Innocent until proven guilty, you ass. That's another American value the right has trampled.
And once again, you piss on the Constitution by demeaning the judicial branch for performing its duties.
Wintermute01001 2 years ago
Oh! It's a FAILED plot, isn't it? Lets not worry about the ONE failed plot! As an addendum, lets not worry about anything else either, because people should keep their lazy, stupid minds fixed on getting more FREE SHIT!
OK, braindead Obama-worshiping ass! You want to talk Constitutional violation? Lets go! Din'cha hear about Obastards rejection of upholding all the non-TARP-fund-holding Chrysler debt firms for not releasing Chrylser's debt for any sum less than what they were LEGALLY ENTITLED?

But if your major concern IS terrorists getting three squares and free cable, as opposed to what's going on with the real people of America, how might YOU expect to calm the asshole spirit of those religious hajjis? Anything! Tolerance...surrender...free money for them for each time they say they are offended...anything!

Well it wasnt Obama who took away our rights and liberties, Bush made the first push towards that with the Patriot Act and the Executive Orders attached to it.
Obama has not returned the rights bush took away which makes me upset with Obama. But republicans are responsible for the situation we are in toay. Not Obama alone.

Oh, how badly you want to blame republicans, but as bad as they've been, democrats have controlled both the house AND the senate since '06. This bullshit talk about Obama "inheriting" Bush's debt, as if he were totally innocent, is just that: bullshit. He voted on the Bush fail-out in '08, so he's a guilty party to this crisis, and now he's making it worse with MORE spending, and unConstitutionally keeping auto shareholders at the bottom of the bankruptcy list when they should come FIRST!

I didnt say Obama was without blame or that he ssome sort of hero. Bush made a bail out plan, i disagreed, obama made a bailout plan, i also disagreed, gov. should not be involved in business to the extent that it has in the last 6 months. Though regulation is needed, Nationalizing busines sis not the way to go.
I hold each acountable for what theyv done, i dont think ones better or worse, simply acountable. Bush has alot to answer for, and so does obama. So plz reply without jumping on me.

OK, fair enough. The said gov take over of business has got me all riled. I haven't seen this much red since Henry Paulson made off like Madoff with our tax dollars. He was given free reign with our tax dollars without judicial review, and he used it to pay off his cronies and then lied to Congress about it...WITHOUT JUDICIAL REVIEW! It's enough to tear your hair out in a rage! Paulson belongs in JAIL!!!

Some US mil at Guant objected strongly to torture.
The point was to find out IF detainees were Al-Qaeda or patsies. That means a trial, evidence. The vast majority did nothing, were released bcz US had nothing to prosecute. Some were tortured nearly 200 times, 6x /day, 7 days a week.
I would authorize torture of a few of Hannity's guests, like Ledeen or Perle or Kristol. They RECOMMENDED an attack on America before 9-11. What did they know? Why won't Hannity confront them?

xylin3 2 years ago
Many serving our country have been waterboarded during training. Torture is physical violence, dismemberment. Scaring someone by putting caterpillars on them, or "humiliating" them by forcing prolonged periods of nudity, or playing bad music repeatedly, is not torture. If one defines any psychological discomfort inflicted on one's enemy as torture, no potentially life-saving, violence-preventing information can be extracted.
urbanhym 2 years ago
thanks for sharing your OPINION.
It IS torture though.
what if it were a video being played to you of your family members being raped and dismembered 1 by 1 ? all fake of course, and no one really got hurt, but you dont see that as torture ?
I bet some of those guys WISH IT WERE physical.
youre just being simple about it.
xylin3 2 years ago
You just discredited yourself by bringing up the case that NO ONE thinks is torture. I hope the terrorists arrive on your doorstep first, 'cause you sure have no interest in defending your country. Look up the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy entry for torture- it is clearly established that watching a video of someone you know getting hurt is not torture, even by the expanded UN definition.
