In reply to: obitchecker 's message, "Why don't we all discuss the issue...just under what circumstances, if ever, and to what extent, it is permissible to torture (and what the word means)" on Fri, May 01, 2009 11:33:11

But because a troll came along and screwed it up for everybody else, they had to change the password. Apparently so many had already been drive away, not many cared to get the new password.

So I can state my opinion, but it will just be you and me. Oh I'm sure Mercedes will jump in Sunday.

In your scenario,I could see a terrorist withstanding "waterboarding" until the deed is done(like send them to the wrong place) then he can just give up the rest of the info.

I guess until I see more info on actually how effective that whole process was - I.E. What attack did they stop?, I am going to stick to "NO TORTURE".
