By the standards of what kinds of torture humans are capable of and what

That is because Saddam is the WRONG comparison. The correct
comparison is to a standard of human rights like the Geneva
Conventions.

It's mild by any comparison. I'm not minimizing it just wasn't more than
a
2 on a 10 scale.

What those prisoners went through was worse than death for most of them.
So I
guess that makes death a 1 or 1.5 on that scale. What is a 10?

The Nazi holocaust.
The Khmer Rouge holocaust.
The starving to death of millions under Stalin.
