This article in the New York Times http://ping.fm/AB9wg says it all. It is a shame and a disgrace. torture supplies NO usable information, the victim will tell the torturer EXACTLY what the torturer wants to hear WHETHER IT IS TRUE OR NOT, the only real use of torture is the gratification of the torturer's sadistic impulses. IF YOU TRY TO JUSTIFY TORTURE YOU ARE A WAR CRIMINAL AND SHOULD HANG. Period. This discussion is over.
