Well, I don't think it is ok to torture prisoners because they're really really bad either. Where I disagree is the defintion of torture and how far we should go to obtain information that may save thousands if not millions of lives.

If we had one of those 9-11 pilots in custody on 9-10, how far would be too far in making him talk(assuming we knew something was up, but not where or when)?
