".........I direct such procedures be withheld or withdrawn including withdrawal of the administration of nutrition and hydration."

Apparently Idaho doesn't believe it is murder either.

I was trying to make the point it is not murder to withhold food and water in these situations, in opposition to what others have said on the Schiavo threads. There were opinions stated on them she was being treated worse than a dog. That it was inhumane to withhold food and water.

I don't believe it is murder.

Point taken.

What say we agree to disagree, and let it rest? -->

It's not murder when there is a written living will, it would be at worst assisted suicide.

When it's on the testimony of one closely involved individual many people will see it as murder (albeit state sanctioned) and did.

It wasn't on the testimony of Michael Schiavo, Trefor.

Please elaborate Long Gone. Everything I saw on the media in the US stated this. Sure the testimony of doctors etc was involved regarding her status but the only person recorded as testifying to Terri having expressed her wishes was Michael that I know of.
