But if he were to be captured alive, I would not torture him. It may seem a contradiction to you, but there it is.

And you don't find it contradictory that you're more than willing to kill a man for being responsible for coordinating and ordering the attempted murder of 50,000 American civilians (succeeding in killing 3,000), but you're not willing to slap him around to make him feel uncomfortable enough to get him to cough up his plans and fellow conspirators?

You have a truly mistaken sense of priorities. Interrogation is not torture when it aims to obtain vital information that will save human life from "unlawful" acts of violence committed outside the established rules of war.

What IS torture is when you have some unsupervised MPs bored out of their sadistic little minds spending their nights stacking naked Arab men on human pyramids. That's torture and it's not condonable.

Or it's taking power drills and poking holes in people's kneecaps and other skeletal points, as many Arab nation's do... That's makes waterboarding look like a baptism.

Anyway.. enough of this BS.. I hope your family sees this exchange and recognize how much of a slack-jawed piece of milquetoast you are.

Maybe we'll just call you McFly...
