Ahh I didnt realise that is what you were refering to. I personally dont know if justice is being done but if world terrorisim slows then I think that justice in the long run has been achieved.

Perhaps, some think, that if you fan the flames enough it will get too hot for the terrorists to poke their heads out of their caves.
Perhaps if you make the price of terrorisim too high, none will be willing to pay. Fighting fire with fire?

You ideas are a foundation. However, who is going to feed, shelter and immunize the world? Who's responsibility is it?

All I can say is this:
9/11 death toll - approximately 3,000?
Iraq Body Count - 9,000 to 11,000. AND COUNTING.
I don't think I need to say any more. And if I do, I probably shouldn't.
FIRE IS ALIVE!
IT LIVES AND BREATHS!
IT CONSUMES, AND DISTROYS!
BUT WE CONTROL IT,
AND DANCE WITH FIRE!!

The soloution to world hunger is quite simply, feed the world. Produce enough food to get people up and off their backsides to the point that they can start providing for themselves, or at the very least have something that they can offer in return for food.
How then, can this be accomplished?

Some of the "torture" that the prisoners went through is actually almost comical when you think about it. Like the prisoner that was told to stand on this wooden box and if he fell off he would be electricuted... thats not torture, that is something that you would expect to find at rush week for any frat at any college in the US.
Some of it is mild psycological warfare. Sometimes saying please isnt enough to get someone to tell you the information that you want to know.
Besides in a recent poll by USA Today, like 80% or higher of Iraqis believe that Saddam tortured and murdered Iraqis. What these few individuals went through is comparitivly nothing compared to what saddam did.
