"And the Interrogatory "torture" we engage in must be planned, controlled, and thoroughly supervised in order to make sure it achieves it's desire goal, the production of credible intelligence that protect those the terrorist intended to victimize."

If you can't guarantee these results would you agree to prohibitions against torture? The following is currently prohibited and the only definition of torture I am referring to:

"conduct "specifically intended to inflict severe physical or mental pain or suffering." This opinion concludes that "severe" pain under the statute is not limited to "excruciating or agonizing" pain or pain "equivalent in intensity to the pain accompanying serious physical injury, such as organ failure, impairment of bodily functions, or even death."
