And? That doesn’t in the least counteract anything I said. If you act on every piece of information, then you are limited by the time it takes to check it out. What’s to stop the terrorist from simply reeling off a long list of places, every time you return to torture him?

Exactly. And you are wasting time by torturing the guy, since it is not in any way a reliable form of extracting information in a rapid fashion.

Is it a waste of time if legal methods have not produced truthful information?
