Catholic and Enjoying It!
besides the sanctity of unborn human life.
The Coalition for Clarity is looking at some of it.

“How to Break a Terrorist” by Mathew Alexander
Join us for a presentation by Matthew Alexander on the immorality and ineffectiveness of torture. Alexander spent 14 years as a US Air Force interrogator, and was awarded the Bronze Star for his service in Iraq. He is a national figure and the author of How to Break a Terrorist: The U.S. Interrogators Who Used Brains, Not Brutality, to Take Down the Deadliest Man in Iraq.
Saturday, May 22 at 7:30 PM in the church. For more information contact Nina Butorac at 206-732-7351.
Tired of laptop bombardiers making excuses for torture? Sick of apologists for brutal and cowardly draft dodger Vice Presidents talking as though torture is realistic warfare and 24 is a documentary? Want to actually hear from somebody who’s done the work of *real* interrogation and not merely spouted off about it on the internet? Sick of sophists who pervert the Catholic tradition to excuse the inexcusable in the service of Party Demands? Come and hear Matthew Alexander, who actually knows what he’s talking about when it comes to ethical and effective interrogation, rather than brutal stupidity. It won’t make you a better Republican, but it may help you escape the lies of the people who tell you that torture enhanced interrogation is the good and Catholic way to save our skin.
