Torture.
It is not something that I want to happen on a "casual" basis. However, I believe that are times when it needs to be used. Your thoughts.
Or to put it another way. Sen Feinstein has done a grave injustice to our nation. It will probably get ugly. Shame on her!

If the torture of one billion muslim terrorists saves the life of one American, than I am all for it.

Feinstein is only after this to try and embarrass the agency and has not given any thought as to how it can hurt us,as a nation.
If a car battery and testicles will extract information you know a terror suspect has, I only have one ting to say. Red is positive and black is negative.

We probably don't want to know what our brave, heroic soldiers did to get information from the Germans and the Japanese during WWII.

It was known and ignored. Been that way throughout history. Winner writes the history.
As you well know, it also happened in Vietnam. Also justified.

I don't think your understanding the issue. It is that a govt. agency, the CIA, intentionally went way beyond what they were authorized by Congress to do and then consistantly lied to Congress about what they did. It's not about individual soldiers in the field.
