Red herring. Please throw it away before it begins to smell.

I've got to admit that a forum search for "Cuba is great" may not be comprehensive (especially as the Backroom is not searchable AFAIK) but nevertheless I got zero results.Would you care to go through the archives and see just how many here have praised Cuba. I friggin doubt it.

Re: The Other Gitmo: Where's the Outrage?
Well youve posted your opinion but you have stated no facts.Now, you might try to deny it, but facts are here
Well that settles it then Just like WMDS since we cant find then they were never there even though Saddam used them on his own people. Maybe check all posts made by Jag . That is if you have time to go over 11000 posts.I've got to admit that a forum search for "Cuba is great" may not be comprehensive (especially as the Backroom is not searchable AFAIK) but nevertheless I got zero results.

Re : The Other Gitmo: Where's the Outrage?
You want me to post facts on how the US support the nice dictators of Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Uzbekistan and so on ? How your country supported Irak during the Iran/Irak conflict ?
You want me to post pics of what happened in Abu Graib (sp?)
You want me to post a link to the 'US admited to use white phosphorus in Falluja' topic ?
If these are in your opinion mere opinions, then I guess you should look for 'opinion' in a dictionnary
Care to explain me where Saddam suddenly hide his WMD ?
Oh, cause he used WMD of his own people ? That means, something among the lines of White Phosphorus ? :D

Re: The Other Gitmo: Where's the Outrage?
Nope, even a search for "Cuba" by poster "JAG" yields nothing. Guess we'll have to assume that the original statement was unfounded vitriol!
Any way. Good guys = no torture because it is bad, bad guys = loads of torture because it is fun. Unless we've been misled and we are also bad guys? Oh the trials and tribulations......]
As noted before expectations are different. I would not expect my vicar to beat people up any more than I would expect a football thug to hug the opposing fans.

Re: The Other Gitmo: Where's the Outrage?
Comparing the US favourably to Cuba? "D'oh!" springs to mind; stating that the US is less repressive than Cuba is almost totally irrelevant, since higher humanitarian standards are (and should be) expected from the upholder of democracy.
Isn't there a lack of a search function for backroom topics, where such a statement may have been posted?

Re: The Other Gitmo: Where's the Outrage?
Yes there is. I did mention it. JAG has been absent recently I believe. Probably busy smoking huge cigars while driving a classic cadillac through the streets of Havana.

Re: The Other Gitmo: Where's the Outrage?
So would you like to try and logically explain the "don't ban torture" agenda of Cheney et co, Gaw ?

Re: The Other Gitmo: Where's the Outrage?
Yes just like saying Saddam had WMDs when we all know he did. Maybe your memory is failing but most of us know Jags position on Cuba.Nope, even a search for "Cuba" by poster "JAG" yields nothing. Guess we'll have to assume that the original statement was unfounded vitriol!
And exactly what torture is he in favor of? You never answer what torture exactly is it that the US supports?So would you like to try and logically explain the "don't ban torture" agenda of Cheney et co, Gaw ?
