BTW, if you want to see Hitchens at his best, here's a video of him annihilating Al Sharpton in a debate on morality and religion:
Am I really messed up for wanted to be waterboarded in a setting like that just to see what it's like, or is that just normal curiosity?
That guy (I think it's Kaj Larsen) on Current TV did this too.
scary shit
You should read Henri Alleg's "The Question." Get the one with Sartre's preface--that alone is worth reading.
(Alleg was a man who was caught and tortured by French paratroopers during the Algier war. Waterboarding was used on him by his torturers AFTER he had already resisted electric shock, etc, as one of the more intensive techniques.)

That's Christopher Hitchens. If you think that took balls, you should hear him called Mother Teresa a crooked cunt.
