I suggested that torture is ineffective as a means of interrogation. This is what I have read. Experts in interrogation universally say that information gained under duress and physical pain is useless. Nah, Orca, I won't let you just dodge the hard question like that. Yes, experts say that torture is not useful BUT they do not say that physical pressure of all types is not useful. So what would you do and how would you draw the line? And if you decide to be Mr. Purity and offer your terrorist cups of tea, how will you feel when the news comes that the truck bomb just exploded in the downtown shopping center, killing 150, including your wife's sister?
