Seriously, what's one person getting tortured compared to thousands being mutilated and killed? If we can accept the latter even in the case of innocents can outrage at torture of the possibly ignorant or uninvolved be expressed with a straight face?
The torture argument is just an extension of the larger argument of war.

Ugg, i dont think thats the point. Countries like the USA are supposed to be civilised and not into all this torture stuff.
If torture is ok then why not just execute known terrorists with no trial?
Afterall its only a few 'evil' people getting killed to potentially save alot of others?
