Torture you, torture me, or "What goes around, comes around."

my take on things

Torture
If you think it'’s OK to torture others, then you'’re also saying that it'’s OK for others to torture you. On the other hand, if we say we don'’t allow torture, we must make sure that it doesn'’t happen in our name. Picture someone you know being tortured- or maybe even yourself. If that's OK with you, then torture may be OK with you.

We can say that there is one standard for the world and another for us, but if we torture others, then Americans will be tortured, maybe even someone you know. Whoever says torture is OK is condemning other Americans to torture. Will you be responsible for it?

We know that information given under duress is not reliable. We don'’t allow confessions and evidence so obtained in our courtrooms for this reason. So, there is no benefit to torture, and it will cause problems, why are there even a few people who want it?

On the other hand, if torture is OK, I have a few questions for Karl Rove.
