Sorry, exactly what hypocrisy are you trying to highlight? Are you supposing that people think that waterboarding is bad and that cutting off fingers is cool? I'm not sure what your point is here.

Nope, the hypocrisy is the passion in which some people fight for terrorists rights, and how little they care for the treatment of their own people, caught in the same predicament.

You are incorrect: what you describe is not what is called hypocrisy. edit: Also, this is a straw man argument. The issue isn't "poor widdle tewwists getting watah boawdid <img src="/~stretch/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />(((", it's "torture is an atrocity, period. We shouldn't do it. I live in a cave and don't even know what conflict you're talking about; nevertheless, torture is wrong."

And to an extent, yes some people will say that cutting off fingers is justified as a result of some terrorist being water boarded, and that that person deserved it somehow. Just like some people say we deserved being attacked on 9/11.

As someone else just said, anyone who actually says that is retarded.

The other hypocrisy is not liking news that doesn't fit the agenda, even though this news isn't even about one affiliation or the other.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Whose agenda are you talking about; what is that agenda; how does this conflict with their agenda such that they are ignoring this; and what other things would they supposedly not ignore?
