re: #30 Dr Lizardo

A truly dedicated and committed terrorist will simply lie to his interrogators in order to throw them off the trail. A truly dedicated terrorist may well have already undergone the type of training administered to soldiers that helps them resist torture in the hands of their foes. End result: He (or she) achieves their objective and the security services now look like a bunch of damned fools.

A truly committed terrorist will not be taken alive. They will have some instantly available method of taking their own lives.

Then they can be tortured as much as the torturers want. Unless they hold a seance they’re getting nothing from him.

Hmmm. Story idea.
