If the guy says ‘My friend Bob has a bomb in his basement’ well, that can easily be verified.

You are really not taking this debate at all seriously.

So as soon as the terrorist tells you that bob has a bomb in his basement, you go look for it? So you torture him for five seconds. He says bob has a bomb in his basement. You go look— takes an hour. No bomb.

You go back to him, torture him. Five seconds of torture, he says that it’s rob who has a bomb. Takes two hours to get there. No bomb.

Why would you trust anything the terrorist told you?
