What you call brutal torture is certainly nothing anybody wants to experience, but the implication that it is legally unprecedented or obviously illegal is not correct, particularly for someone who is both subject to UCMJ and is reasonably deemed a suicide risk.
- jellicle 13y agoNice torture justification, bro. You should be proud of yourself: you've stood up for humans beings torturing other human beings. Probably the highlight of your life to date. Hint: nobody has ever said they thought Manning was a suicide risk except for his torturers. All qualified medical personnel that have ever examined him (including the prison psychologist) have insisted that he wasn't. Hint 2: doing sleep deprivation and humiliation is not the way to reduce someone's chance of suicide, if you honestly believed they were a risk. Which no one did.
