You can resist all forms of torture to do with the scientific study of algae, actually I don't think that would be too hard....

I love you, you're like a straight cut out of the picture that would be beside "internet superhero" in an encyclopaedia.
Is it an involuntary reflex? You know you're not suffocating, you know you're not drowning, you know the 'good guys' are not going to kill you.
Do I post a serious reply...
The strength in what Obama is doing is that he is showing he is willing to protect those who were merely following orders - I would like to see prosecutions brought against those who provided the advice and go-ahead to the people carrying out the acts. Going after the generals and not the soldiers - it will win him a lot of support with the common man, I would have thought.
In regards to torture, until you have been subject to it you cannot say how it would affect you. Some of the strongest, toughest people crack quite quickly when subjected to mild torture, others who perhaps would be considered weak, can prove surprisingly resistant.
Eventually torture will crack all people - just depends on whether you get any useful, true, information from them before they crack and start telling you anything they think you want to hear.

Unfortunately they will have probably been told by their masters / mad mullahs / religious power freaks that the Americans / British brutally rape, murder etc innocent woman and children. Imagine what they think will happen to them once they have been captured by the greater and lesser satans.

It feels like you are drowning, and to an extent you are, there is water entering your lungs.
Heres a chap from Vanity Fair undergoing it:

Sorry nitefly, had to steal your picture.
This picture represents 87 perfectly.
Everyone knew that America tortured people, now at least there is proof.
Am I right in thinking Bush in the most "hated" president of all time ? above even the great Nixx ?
way to ruin the thread
Would you say that you are:
A) a fantasist?
B) a hard as nails merc with nothing to lose and everything to prove?
Soldato
No it isn't.
Cutting fingers off cm by cm using sheers is horrible. Having your eyes burned out with acid is terrible. Having every bone in your body broke is terrible. That is torture.
Locking someone up with a caterpillar just doesn't compare.
The above methods mentioned would more than likely result in the person blacking out due to the pain.
Have you ever almost drowned? Ever been caught underwater and not knowing if you would get back to the surface?
There was another torture method which sounds like a piece of cake, but it can do terrible damage.
All it involves is strapping someone down and dripping cold water slowly on to their forehead at random intervals, known as Chinese Water Torture.
