"When someone is in custody that is known, beyond all reasonable doubt, to be a player in an imminent attack (hours), a mechanism must exist to take extraordinary measures." This goes back to the black and white scenario. If he is known beyond all reasonable doubt to be a player ... then he is not subdued until his play is turned over to us. He is still in the fight, we have every right to fight to stop him. "...Not to see whether the person ultimately knew something, but that the information AT THE TIME indicated he did." Now you change the scenario. We either knew beyond a reasonable doubt that he was an active player or we did not. Which is it? You get no cart blank approval here to start torturing every prisoner that 'may' have useful information, until you luck onto the one who does.
