There are also cases of people giving up real information. However, I was never trying to defend "torture" - nor did I want to argue the definition of torture or whether or not this technique or another is torture. However, to compare anything we might have done (and its all speculation of course, always is, the worse it is the more believable it is apparently) to what took place in Iraq under Saddam and his sons is just...disgusting. And before I'm asked, as if it isn't painfully obvious, I do value the lives of those Iraqi citizens more than those taking up arms to wage jihad (regardless of who they're trying to kill or where). _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
