Something Worse Than Being Burned To Death

To be flip, so what else is new.
ISIS executed a captured Jordanian pilot by burning him alive - Business Insider


It may have been a mistake over the years on my part to have applied "walk a mile in their shoes" to situations beyond the inept clerk or school bully.  There is no tragedy in my life to begin to compare being burned alive. There are a couple of  moving box filled with well wore, very ugly, imaginary shoes. It took about all of five seconds to decide that this just wasn't worth it. It also make it easier to see that after it all it is over for him and hopefully at peace.


 Call ISIS what you like barbarians, a cult of death, or adolescent children. That doesn't mean its new behavior for them as the press make it out. I don't think this is even the worst way the have killed some one.
Sick: Obama Just Showed ISIS Where His Priorities Lie 

"Following the disturbing release of a video depicting James Foley, a New Hampshire reporter who disappeared during an assignment in Syria, being beheaded by terrorists, many looked to Barack Obama for his comments regarding the disturbing news."

I got the sense that the beheading was not carried out with guillotine like precision of kindness.

"Despite warnings from experts, including former CIA Deputy Director Mike Morell, that this development is a direct threat to America’s safety and should be met with a strong military response, Obama was reportedly not troubled enough to cancel his latest round of golf."

How horrible to have your death dismissed like that? It was over. For Foley it made little difference. The real horror is the question of what if your don't die.

Those are the are stop me in my tracks, that I can't get my head around. Those have been CONTINUING since at least continuing September. Graphic Warning

Heathcare and Torture

I am aways looking for new pieces of info and different arguments and ways of looking and explaining issues. i came across two tonight.

First the last half of Anderson Cooper, i just caught the last few minutes. They all seemed to agree that Universal heath care is a must. i can not disagree more, but that's me. The point they make is this: giving everyone heath care is the easy part. the hard part will be keeping and getting prices down. if they aren't it could drive us into an unbelievable debt. Ok the second part is the part every body seems to just overlook. Why can't we get the prices down first and see where we are before giving everyone heath care. You could say that if the government provides all or most health care they could drive prices down(ignoring over head and past track record) or set prices( socialism and loss of research) . get prices under control first please it makes sense.

Second a daily show. Mixed in with a little torture humor a hint of a point. Bush is a weak idiot, not the point. They have dodged issues over and over were they didn't need to and should NOT HAVE. First in light of some history I wasn't aware of as fact, didn't just come from him, we apparently have called water boarding torture after WWII. So it is idiotic to continue to dodge this issue(always has), stand up and say it is. Then make two points. The one that is mentioned in passing by people that are pretty conservative and ignored by the left are the Germans out of uniform spying that were executed during WWII with little fan fair. The second is that these people are not in a uniform and are clearly not civilians. So not covered by Geneva or anything else I can think of. It is the one exception to most if not all the rules. You can argue morals all day long but not legality.

So I will call it torture, all be it the most mild thing i would call torture, but it doesn't matter.
