I wish it wasn’t but this will be a award winner: Amnesty International’s new anti-waterboarding advert found on unsubscribe-me.org, the fight against human rights abuse in the ‘war on terror’.
Waterboarding is a form of torture that consists of immobilizing a person on their back with the head tilted downward (the Trendelenburg position), and pouring water over the face and into the breathing passages. Through forced suffocation and inhalation of water, the subject experiences the process of drowning and is made to believe that death is imminent. (Wikipedia)
