Ohfer crissakes.

Read this. And then explain to me why NOBODY will ask the Prezanit two simple questions:

1. DOES THE U.S. GOVERNMENT ENGAGE IN THE PACTICE OF "WATERBOARDING," THAT IS, THE PRACTICE BY WHICH A DETAINEE IS STRAPPED TO A BOARD AND DUNKED HEAD-FIRST IN A TANK OF WATER TO SIMULATE DROWNING, IN AN ATTEMPT TO OBTAIN INFORMATION?

2. IS THIS TORTURE?

YES OR NO?!?!

The reason they won't ask, of course, is that they fear being told that asking these questions PUTS OUR LIVES AT RISK!! Help! Help! Mommy! The bad journalist is trying to kill me! Cut his mic! Lock him up! Waah! Waaaaah!

This country seriously needs its own Suu Kyi.
