After four years, what could they possibly be learning from these people that's worth degrading our democratic principles to this extent? Mind boggling.

Well don't you think most of this "interrogation" took place in the first 3-6 months of detention? I highly doubt (but of course, have no idea) that any of this stuff still goes on.

We are becoming the people we have spent generations fighting against. We share the low moral ground with the despotic regimes of the past.

All our ideals ring hollow in the face of our actions, approved by our elected politicians.

Sick entertainment? These people are perverse and enjoy this stuff.
