How do we know no murder has happened at Guantanamo? Lets see some video of these suicides to be sure theres been no foul play. And in Hanoi, how many pows murdered other pows? Its a separate issue, I know.

I guess they need good medical staff at Gitmo due to the torture that they do there on a regular basis.
By the way, I guess he should be aware that the US ratified the Torture Convention, which prohibits toture under ALL circumstances. So yeah, let's just through out the law for political considerations.

Again, why would the CIA keep using it then? They're not gonna keep doing something that doesn't get proper info...

"intel agencies are a bit above that, they'll actually want REAL info"
This is the point, torture does not work in obtaining reliable information, take for example the Tipton Three who confessed to meeting Bin laden when held in Gitmo, it was later found that they where in the UK at the time:

That's straying from the point somewhat and a whole other different issue. Of course I'd expect to be jailed if I went and tortured someone to, I dunno, tell me where my stolen bike was kept... |
