Doesn’t this undermine their argument?

Doesn’t voluntarily undergoing waterboarding in an attempt to demonstrate that it’s torture undermine the claim that it is torture?

I mean, buy cialis sildenafil if it really were really torture would anyone do it to themselves just to prove a point?

For example, here I can’t imagine anyone voluntarily allowing himself to be branded with burning irons, cialis have glass rods inserted into his penis and broken, or allow electrodes to be attached to his genitals to prove a point.

My inclination is to consider waterboarding torture and disallow it in interrogations, but this stunt actually makes me less likely to look at the technique as prohibitively inhumane.
