Re: "U.S. officials confirm that water boarding -- a controversial interrogation technique in which prisoners are made to feel like they are drowning -- has been banned from the coercive techniques that can be used in questioning high-value prisoners"

Hmmm...which torture methods are still on the "go" list for the Bush regime?

Isn''t there an Algazeera journalist who has been held for years in solitary and under stress at Gitmo who is on the verge of dying from depression - just letting himself waste away?

I guess waterboarding is not the only way to torture a person.

I wonder how the CBS hired iraqi journalist that has been held without charge in Iraq for a year or something is doing?
