That’s not agreeing with it. You alluded to it in your 53 and I was responding. My argument is that the “ticking bomb” scenario almost never happens, so the excuse that torture could net us info that would let us prevent deaths that are immanently about to happen is a straw man.


The CIA claims that waterboarding Khaled Sheik Mohamad produced intel that was used to thwart planned operations.
