Who said anything about revenge, or "getting even"?
Please stick to the argument and avoid trailing off into absurdities.
My point is that I really don't give a damn if we scare people into giving information needed to protect the second most sought after target in the terrorist world (behind Israel). The fact is that our opponents are using these methods (and far worse) anyway. Therefore, there is no reason/benefit to us restricting our methods of information extraction.
People like you just want to see us fight the threat with both hands tied behind our backs, as it were. Due to your complete intrasigence on this topic, your credibility is quite low.
I know you have difficulty comprehending this, but in the real world, being nice for the sake of being nice gets people killed.
