You make a good point. And I'm not saying that I don't think we should evolve with our tactics and what we consider acceptable with regard to our enemy. I'm not in the camp that says that if we treat prisoners humanely that our enemies will be encouraged to do the same. I personally don't have a problem with drones. And I think we are overly cautious about "collateral" damage in a war where you have woman and in some cases children becoming suicide bombers. I'm in the take no prisoners camp.
But, the central question that will not likely ever be answered is did these interrogation techniques net us the actionable intel that we sought, and basically gave up the moral high ground to get?
