If and when we send some of these prisoners to Egypt or Syria for interrogation, that is a different story.

Im not going to get into name dropping or story telling or any of that stuff. But to think that the US is above torturing (we call it "interviewing) the enemy is short of reality.

In saying this, I realize the enemy does the same things...no better, no worse.

The main purpose of the geneva convention is more to protect the "grunts". Any person with potentially compromising knowledge on either side...well...lets just say all is fair in love and war. And the American "interviewers" are the best in the world.
