If our Beloved Leader espouses "alternative treatments" for suspected terrorists, claiming that these treatments are neither humiliating nor cruel (vide the Geneva Conventions),

then let him parade buck-naked with ladies' underwear over his head and have his picture taken for public viewing;

let him be fitted with a dog collar and led about on a leash;

then let his nose and mouth be covered by plastic, suffocating, while water is poured over his face, simulating drowning.

And then let him say that those (and other) alternative treatments are not torture. I wonder if he would change his tune? To belabor the point, I'm saying that he should not cause to be inflicted on others what he is not willing to undergo himself.
