re: #418 der_ich

I think you make valid points but aren’t you giving those professionals and the officers a carte blanche to basically “advise” and do anything loathsome and immoral they find necessary or worthwhile ? What about - just to take it to an extreme - a legal advice to kill terrorist A to pressure terrorist B?

Perhaps you should read the list of torture crimes prior to assuming that laws were broken. I haven’t heard that summary execution was performed anywhere. No thumb screws, no rack, no drawing and quartering.
