Much of the ability to torture, kill, or maim comes from a process that makes the victim sub-human.

Humans do not typically take to killing their own, but once you make an enemy or opponent out as no different than a wild animal, pest, or beast; we have seen throughout history that humans are capable of intolerable cruelty.

Of course, this does not include the 2% or so of the population that is sociopathic. However, these types often times begin the institutional or national dehumanizing process that leads to the killing of their fellow man (Hitler, Stalin, etc.).
