Irony Alert!

Man that was fast!

UAE Torture Prince

Glenn Greenwald found this little nugget in the Guardian, and noticed the rank hypocrisy and tut-tutting that we are about to watch this administration/legislature engage in.

I mean seriously, we had our very good noble reasons for dunking those fellows heads in water! They were evil and had pertinent information on an ever-evolving ticking anthrax-radiological-swine flue bomb.

But now when a government official of another country does this, we catch the vapors and demand answers.

Now this is not me supporting what Sheikh Issa bin Zayed al-Nahyan has done, but more to point out why it is you investigate and or prosecute when you find these cases. Or else this is the company you keep. Sadists and monsters like that.

-Cheers
