So we have heard in the news recently that one of the masterminds of 9/11 and beheader of Daniel Pearl was "water boarded" 183 times.  Boo HOO. The liberals among us are acting like the CIA did this to a little old lady jay-walking across the street.  Let's set this straight shall we?  This guy chants "Death to America" over his corn flakes every morning. And let's not forget that terrorists led by this dirtbag have separated heads from bodies of INNOCENT PEOPLE to make their point.

So.. in my opinion, he got off easy with water boarding. If I had something to say about his treatment, I would have chopped off parts of his body while keeping him alive until he said things like "I love America" and then I would have videotaped his "confession" and sent it to Al Jazeera AND uploaded it a video sharing service that does not censor, so it could go viral.

Here's a little background on Khalid Shiek Mohammad who was water boarded 183 times:

KSM, as intelligence agencies call him, directed the September 11 attacks, which killed 2,978 people and injured at least 7356. "I am the head of the al Qaeda military committee," he told Al Jazeera in April 2002. "And yes, we did it." KSM wired money to his nephew, Ramzi Yousef, who masterminded the February 1993 World Trade Center blast that killed six and wounded 1,040. KSM and Yousef planned Operation Bojinka, a foiled 1995 scheme to explode 12 American jetliners above the Pacific. While some doubt his claim, KSM reportedly said, "I decapitated with my blessed right hand the head of the American Jew Daniel Pearl in the City of Karachi, Pakistan."

Turns out the Shiek was not so strong or willing to meet with hs 72 virgins in heaven:

After U.S. and Pakistani authorities captured KSM in March 2003, he stayed mum for months, often answering questions with Koranic chants. Interrogators eventually water-boarded him-for just 90 seconds.

KSM "didn't resist," one CIA veteran said in the August 13 New Yorker. "He sang right away." Another CIA official told ABC: "KSM lasted the longest under water-boarding, about a minute and a half, but once he broke, it never had to be used again."

KSM's revelations helped authorities arrest at least six major terrorists:

* Ohio-based trucker Iyman Faris pleaded guilty May 1, 2003, to providing material support to terrorists. He secured 2,000 sleeping bags for al Qaeda and delivered cash, cell phones and airline tickets to its men. He also conspired to derail a train near Washington, D.C., and use acetylene torches to sever the Brooklyn Bridge's cables, plunging it into the East River.

* Jemaah Islamiya (JI) agent Rusman "Gun Gun" Gunawan was convicted of transferring money to bomb Jakarta's Marriott Hotel, killing 12 and injuring 150.

* Hambali, Gunawan's brother and ring-leader of JI's October 2002 Bali nightclub blasts, killed 202 and wounded 209.

* Suspected al Qaeda agent Majid Khan, officials say, provided money to JI terrorists and plotted to assassinate Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf, detonate U.S. gas stations and poison American water reservoirs.

* Jose Padilla, who trained with al Qaeda in Afghanistan, was convicted last August of providing material support to terrorists and conspiring to kidnap, maim and murder people overseas. Padilla, suspected of but not charged with planning a radioactive "dirty bomb" attack, reportedly learned to incinerate residential high-rises by igniting apartments filled with natural gas.

* Malaysian Yazid Sufaat, an American-educated biochemist and JI member, reportedly provided hijackers Khalid al-Midhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi housing in Kuala Lumpur during a January 2000 9/11 planning summit. He also is suspected of employing "20th hijacker" Zacarias Moussaoui. "The 9/11 Commission Report" (page 151) states: "Sufaat would spend several months attempting to cultivate anthrax for al Qaeda in a laboratory he helped set up near the Kandahar airport."

To me, eye for an eye is actually TOO KIND for these scum of the earth "man-caused disasters" But the true disaster in my opinion is the liberal, kumbaya treatment of people who wish to wipe us from the face of the earth. If they do, I hope they start in Washington,DC.
