Nonsense.

Waterboarding was one of the charges brought as an example of Japanese cruelty to our POWs look at article 54 and the testimony given. People can have more than one charge brought against them at a trial. It was certainly one of the charges.

Further, what about the courts martials in the Phillipines… Those certainly were specifically about it. We convicted our own men for doing it - in time of war, against irregular troops, who were captured on the battlefield . In otherwords, as far as UCMJ is concerned, we have already convicted our own people for doing these things to others who fit the same bill as these men.

Just nonesense.
