Would you change your mind on waterboarding if you saw someone you love go through it? Video WARNING

[Omaha Steve]

IF my dad were still alive, he would tell you how he felt about enemy soldiers that tortured his friends in WWII. How many of our enemies did we create ourselves because of torture at Guantanamo Bay detention camp and undisclosed locations?

Jewish shopkeeper Jakob (Robin Williams) is waterboarded by Nazi officers. Robin Williams avoided the effects of what would have been actual waterboarding with barely visible nose plugs.

1. So that's what it looks like.

Sometimes you need to see such things, to confront your own fears, in order to have a greater understanding of the effects of such torture on those tortured and on those watching.

How many of our enemies did we create ourselves? Too many. Way too many.

Torture is Wrong. Always Wrong.

3. Actually - not any version I've seen,

The demonstrations I've seen had a face covered with a towel, head lower than feet, with water poured over the towel covered face.

2. No

Things I think are wrong I think are wrong whether or not it has happened to someone I love.

4. I already think it's wrong, it's illegal torture and it's a war crime

I might think a little different of it if I saw Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly going through it, but in general my opinion of it's negative enough that seeing it won't change anything.

5. Waterboarding is torture.

Torture is the greatest human crime. There is never a justification for torture.

6. No because I've always been against all forms of torture.
