That’s pretty horrible to watch, actually.

That’ll be the enya music in the background.

Thumbscrews, waterboarding, Enya. Yeah, those do sort of all work together.

Was that music in the room or was it dubbed in? God, it was awful, almost torture in itself.

Notice he calls them “Sir” before they’ve done anything to him at all.

That’s British courtesy for you, no such courtesy for the “Islamofascists” of course. Hitchens, advocate of kinder, gentler American hegemony throughout the whole of the earth. That would be a good rant: “Anti-Torture War Hawks Are Complete Hypocrites”

The next thing he has to agree to ?… how about lying in bed sleeping and then having a 100 ton bunker busting bomb dropped on his head ?, just like the Iraqi’s have to worry about each night when they close their eyes.

All neocons are manly, with advocacy of total war against all of Americans eminently wicked enemies and all.

Wow. Chrissy Hitchins doesn’t look like such a tough guy now. He’s found out it’s a hell of a lot easier to egg on death and destruction than it is to deal with it’s consequences, especially if you’re on the other side.

Ahhh… Hitchens finally has it occur to him “what if you got the wrong guy?”…
Like Will Grigg said a while back on Goyette’s greatly missed radio show: “after you’ve tortured them into confessing, what point is there in having a trial/military tribunal ?” , or something close to those words.
