There was credible evidence that the person being interrogated had knowledge of an impending terrorist attack involving a weapon of mass destruction? What if that person was an American citizen?
No, of course not! Torture gives you false information....better to use proven interrogation techniques....
plus torture/ENHANCED interrogation is ILLEGAL.

I always thought "proven interrogation techniques" was enhanced interrogation? lolNo, of course not! Torture gives you false information....better to use proven interrogation techniques....

So what do you instead?Be real, folks!
First, it is absolutely inadmissible that America, land of the free, etc., have as an approved policy that torture be not only tolerated, but approved. The image is too ugly to accept. The damage to U.S. reputation is too much to pay. We can't be a country like that.
Second, of course anyone, anywhere, would use whatever means it took to dislodge information of the imagined magnitude presented in this thread. It doesn't have to be said and discussed. That only makes it seem even more hypocritical if things ever come to that.
Third, short of some extreme, absurd situation imagined here, torture is out of the question. Nyet. Nichts. Non. Basta. It is something only the disgusting would be involved in, or encourage!
torture is known to give false information, sending law enforcement on a wild goose chase, the terrorist wants to die and be a martyr...No, of course not! Torture gives you false information....better to use proven interrogation techniques....

I'm sure those that would die when all else failed, would disagree

better to use proven techniques of interrogation questioning and get boots on the ground doing gumshoe work to find it...
Mostly, what governments, military and secret service units do is make it so the situation they want to use as an excuse is of the unimaginably dire type.So what do you instead?Be real, folks!

This is assuming the "you" in the above quote is general, and not personal. I would know the difference between ultimate and relative emergency. Burning down New York is one thing. Shooting five hostages is another, after all, in the so-called real world.

Most certainly wrong. The question in the cited post was answered and alternatives to physical pain infliction, mostly for the eagerly sadistic joy of doing it (as is clear from some posters), has been discussed in above threads. Read them.Mostly, what governments, military and secret service units do is make it so the situation they want to use as an excuse is of the unimaginably dire type.So what do you instead?Be real, folks!
