Once. Given that this country has prosecuted water boarding in the past, I’d say you just shouldn’t play in that area.

Torture is not simply a degree of damage defined by a single third party, it is defined collectively by the international community.

The reasons for not torturing are plenty:

1) it reduces the likelihood of surrender
2) it reduces the possibility to gain support from centrists on the opposing side and third parties
3) it leads to “if they do it, we should do it”
