A couple of side points.
Terrorists are not protected by the Geneva Convention because they are not signatories of it. They do not abide by the Geneva convention, and do not have any basis of claim to the protections proscribed therein. In fact, I believe that terrorists are specifically excluded as being protected by the Geneva convention, as only uniformed soldiers are. This is why spies could legally be shot during times of war. That being said.....
Certain things are not acceptable. I do not condone torture in any way. However, I do not necessarily regard certain interrogation techniques as torture. Sleep deprivation and the like.
