Dymaxion World to Planet Dershowitz

John at Dymaxion World reads the papers:

"First, we've got Alan Dershowitz writing, in all seriousness, that if torture was good enough for the Nazis, it's good enough for him![1] :

"There are some who claim that torture is a nonissue because it never works--it only produces false information. This is simply not true, as evidenced by the many decent members of the French Resistance who, under Nazi torture, disclosed the locations of their closest friends and relatives."

Never mind, as John points out, what the actual experts say.
When Dershowitz continues on with ......wait for it......Israel and the ticking time bomb analogy, John explains what's gone wrong here:

"The Nazis are not a modern, contemporary example of a successful political organization....
There's the added irony that Dershowitz is reliably the first voice to smear critics of Israel as anti-semites, but here he is literally comparing US and Israeli policies to Nazi Germany. The difference, of course, is that Dershowitz is comparing the Nazis to the US favourably - their torture worked!."

Go.
