"How does one compare a stoning, or a beheading, with panties on the head????

They are not comparable and I would never make that attempt. One of them is a brutal execution, one is a quick death execution and the third is embarrassing. I'm not sure any of them qualify as torture.

"They are seeing many MANY victims with drill holes through their faces and heads.....inflicted before they were killed."

Definitely torture.

"While I might not approve of waterboarding, I don't believe it begins to compare with drill holes, or cut off pieces of the body, or any number of terrible things that others are inflicting on people.

I don't think waterboarding is torture when done by trained interrogators within limits that forbid long term harm. The other drill hole examples you gave qualify under classic torture definitions.

"I can guarantee you that others in this world are not one bit bashful in SERIOUS torture before killing their victims!

Some of those other people are posting on this thread, I am not one of them.
