I believe that war is not of who is right and who is wrong, but of two or more sides of different beliefs and opinions. Both are doing what they think it's "right" and if they truly believe that torture is necessary to "protect" their people, then by all means it should be done.
But let's keep in mind - torture for INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE, not disgusting pleasure of pealing a layer of skin from your "enemy".
If a person truly belived that what he was doing was truly for the betterment for his beliefs, then warcrime or not, he did what he believed was the right thing and almost the only way (if he TRULY believed he was right, not some sick, twisted pleasure of interrogation or honor).
EDIT
Also, so let's not complain too much about it when the tides turn and it's happens to ourselves.

Use anything all you want, you'll have to pay for your own choices and actions. Though if whatever you're doing is affecting others, be sensible and considerate and stop or excuse yourself.
I think you should be able to set ring-tones for emergencies only and when a dialer dials under an emergency extention, it'll get your attetion regardless. And if you dink around with this function, then you're just playing the boy who cried wolf.

I live to fulfill the dreams I've accumulated over my years. I live to find the beauty during the bleakest times, to find fruits in the dryest desert, and to learn all I can about it all.
There's a lot to life, you just have to find it. Some have told me that there's no point to advancement because it just makes more questions. Well, I believe that's the beauty of it, to a never-ending knowledge. Whatever you learn becomes a prequisit to what you are to learn next! For some people who need help, think of it as leveling in a video game. It's hard as hell to level, but you can level, you might screw up here and about, but if you really wanted to you could still level. Knowledge-wise, you'll never have a level-cap, you'll never be "Done" playing or "beaten" the game until life itself ends. Even after life ends, there MAY be an afterlife.
I somewhat believe in past/afterlives. I sometimes think that I was reborn because I would get nostalgic when the most random things happen around me. When I used to come upon ancient life, it wasn't the naive romance I saw in it, it simply made me miss what I felt was home... AND I'M ASIAN! Not just Asian. I grew up in Taiwan, lived poorly and dangerously. I remember when we didn't have pencil sharpeners (the big city kids had them, though), we had to buy these fold-out blades for $5NT and just shave off bits of our pencils to sharpen them. Where I came from, the ancient lifestyle is completely foreign to me and it's not like I grew up with fairie tales and such. Just suddenly when, one day, I stumbled upon the ancient life, I felt warmth and nostalgea. But in the end, this time period is where I'm at and I'm going to find the beauty in this, too. And I think I've done a pretty good job so far
I live for Natuer, for Time, for Mother, for my siblings, for humanity, for you, but most of all, for me.

So we can fulfill the seven deadly sins 
Emotions are for everything, give that a thought and you'll most likely agree. And I don't mean emotions as in soft-gushee, whatever some of you mocho men may think, but emotions even in excitement, enthusiasm, anger, ect. If you can't think of any more emotions, please get off the computer and go outside for a little while.

my friend once said
"Computers will never take over the world, they f*** up too much"
Computers will never entirely replace man in war (unless the world decides to duke all fueds out on starcraft and use that to determine who wont he war... korea would probably take over the world in that case). A man would still have to make the decisions, to make the commands. If the computer did a reaction to an action, then it would still have to be created by man to determine how critical it'd have to be and there are always exceptions to certain actions, therefore it will not entirely replace humans.

Computers will eventually take over human fighting up on the front lines, they have already made a prototype of a type of ambulance that sees a injured person and goes and picks them up and by internet doctors on the other side of the planet can do whatever they need using a computer to make the robot do things to the human inside.
They also are working on completely autonomous vehicles. Autonomous means that it is a robot that can go do whatever it wants without any help from a human. KInd of like the movie Stealth, that was an autonomous aircraft. They are making tanks and humvees and some other types of vehicles that are completely computer operated.
They say one of the hardest things to make all these tings be created are for them to be able to differenciate between our ally and men between the enemies and such.
They have vehicles, regular cars we drive today, drive over terrain tests to see how good thye are. They have contests to see what kind of things make an autonomous vehicle better and see the terrain better and to perfect the autonomous vehicles!

To block out common sense. If anything Emotions are the reason why most people die. Love for anything, a country, using a gun, the thrill of doing dangerous stuff, if you love someone and they dump you, you get angry (Another emotion) and maybe do some bad thigns, depression makes you less productive, which could make your grades slip, you could commit suicide, or end up making your life suck so it kills you in the long run (Homeless) and a bunch of other crap.
Mankind had emotions when it first existed, and that is when emotions were usefull, but emotions don't really evolve with the times do they?

BINARY DEFENSE TOURNAMENT!
It's been awhile since there was a big UMS playing tournament, so HorroR and I have decided to put on a Binary Defense tournament.
I want to try something different with the tournament brackets. Here is a diagram of how the matches would be carried out in a hypothetical tournament:
Each letter represents a team. In the first round at the top of the bracket (red letters), Team A defeats Team B. However, that does not mean the game is over for Team B. All of the losers in the first set of matches get sent to their own special "Loser Tournament" (green letters) and will get a chance at revenge. The very bottom set of matches in the bracket represent the first of the losers' games. Once there, Team B fights fellow loser Team D and wins. After the red bracket's next batch of rounds has ended, the losers from those games are seeded (yellow letters) into the second round of the losers' games. Once the winners and losers have fought it out with each other, the best loser will face off against the best winner in the final match.
Prizes will only be awarded to the two teams in the final match. The prizes are:
-1800 minerals for the champions.
-600 minerals for the runner-ups.
The prize money will be split either 2 or 3 ways, depending on the number of players in the teams.
-MATCH RULES:
Each set of rounds will last for a week. For instance, the top row of matches will be allowed one week to play. When a match is played, I (or Horror) must receive one replay from each team in the match. PM me those, please. The bottom row of the loser matches also counts in the first week of matches, but I will give the losing teams 3 extra days if they need more time. The first week will begin Monday, July 3rd. At that point, I will randomly determine who everyone will fight. You will have until Sunday, the 9th to get me the replays, and the games will continue in that pattern. If I receive no replays, then teams will be disqualified at my discretion.
-GAME RULES:
Lifting of buildings and putting them on the course is not allowed, nor is making "unit walls" to block the path of the oncoming enemies. You can use units to force enemies around them, but not totally cut them off. No hacks are allowed either. Anyone found hacking or breaking the rules will forfeit the match.
-TEAM RULES:
Each match will be held between two teams of 2 people each. Its up to the members to decide who they will be playing with and what the team names will be. Be sure and tell me in this topic the specifics of your teams. If the game proves to be popular enough though, I will up the team sizes to 3 people each.
THE ENTRANCE FEE IS 20 MINERALS PER PERSON
-YOU TRUST US, RIGHT?
Horror and I would like to play in this tournament. We will be on the same team. We will play by the rules, but if anyone suspects that we are not, then post the replay somewhere for everyone to see and we will be shamefully out-casted if found guilty. If we win the whole thing, then we get to keep the 1800 mineral prize. >=D
Teams:

For 1, I'm really starting to hate this crap all over SEN. The download map thing really needs2 be fixed, becuz not everyone will rename it the same(mostly becuz the filename is already too big). Maybe this is cuz you guys are on Macs or whatever, but I think alot of us would really appreciate it. The big concern behind this is, for every match someone will be dling this map cuz they'll all have it named differently. It's pretty annoying, try and fix it k?
Goodluck with the tournament tho, looks like it'll work.
