do you believe in magic?
do you know how many people confessed to practicing magic under torture in the past?

I (hopefully) don't even have to list the ethical and moral issues with it.

and even with non-lethal tactics there is still permanent internal damage and severe psychological damage as well.
Do you believe that anyone that tortures anyone is concerned about any "theory" or the morality thereof, or the state of either their mental or physical capacity after the fact? Most torture victims ends their usefulness with a slug placed behind their ear or a public display of decapitation....have you not observed any of the Islamic PR tapes? The Americans are novices. But, we are quick learners. BD
