That was a bit to short, almost sidestepping, wasn't it? Please read again. It would be more interesting to me if you replied to more than half a quoted sentence of the the original post.

How would the situation described there directly support their mission? You don't really answer the question I asked through an example. I can spell it out more clearly.

Could it be right that evil persons in illegal organizations use torture for a good cause?
Does it not in any way affect the moral and legal standards if a good person use torture for a good purpose?
