If ISIS capture an American soldier, would it be acceptable for them to use torture to gain information?

I have no problem torturing the enemy isis terrorists for information , not for fun . I also say that the USA should take no prisoners of isis terrorists , no med aid for them either .
but yeah [as answer to the question] ,it is unacceptable to torture USA soldiers . Course for isis there are no rules even if they had signed some silly Geneva convention .
Mind what you wish for.I have no problem torturing the enemy isis terrorists for information , not for fun . I also say that the USA should take no prisoners of isis terrorists , no med aid for them either .
Worst example of Moral Relativism I've seen in quite some time.So many people want all ISIS fighters dead, but they don't want ISIS to kill American soldiers, neglecting to factor in, you're invading their lands.
So many people agree with the US using torture, but would consider ISIS using torture to be a war crime the should be killed for.
Should members of the CIA that use torture or randomly murder civilians be killed?
The point being, you can't claim one side is evil, thus torture is acceptable, whilst claiming you're the good guys, so torture against your people is not acceptable.
In my humble opinion, both sides have used torture, and the responsible on both sides should face trial and punishment.
isis has no lands although I think that they have claimed some lands Indofred . They are pirates on land as far as I can tell . isis follows no rules as far as I can tell and deserve nothing other than eradication . As far as killing USA soldiers [I expect that] . The USA should loosen up and get to the work of total destruction of isis .
“The point being, you can't claim one side is evil, thus torture is acceptable, whilst claiming you're the good guys, so torture against your people is not acceptable.”
Then your point is moot unless you can cite an objective, documented, and official American source declaring torture to be a sanctioned component of US interrogation policy, and that torture is currently being conducted by American intelligence officials, or those contracted to do so.
Detainees were forced to stand on broken limbs for hours, kept in complete darkness, deprived of sleep for up to 180 hours, sometimes standing, sometimes with their arms shackled above their heads.
Prisoners were subjected to “rectal feeding” without medical necessity. Rectal exams were conducted with “excessive force”. The report highlights one prisoner later diagnosed with anal fissures, chronic hemorrhoids and “symptomatic rectal prolapse”.
The report mentions mock executions, Russian roulette. US agents threatened to slit the throat of a detainee’s mother, sexually abuse another and threatened prisoners’ children. One prisoner died of hypothermia brought on in part by being forced to sit on a bare concrete floor without pants.
