Waterboarding

US President Donald Trump has said he believes waterboarding works, saying "we have to fight fire with fire".

I am sorry, but what? Waterboarding is the practice of pouring water over someone's face to mimic drowning as an interrogation tactic.

It is widely considered as a form of torture and has been banned by the US.

Has the President not heard of: two wrongs don't make a right? If I punched a person; and then that person punched all of my family. Is that right? No. And, it won't end well either. As according to this theory, I can then go and punch all their friends and family.

We need to show that peaceful methods can fight wrong. We don't need to flex our muscles all the time. Let's be at peace.
