Who wouldn't.

But again, I don't care about the comparisons. I get that a great deal of these terrorists (or people we assume are terrorists, since we're not even sure because we haven't charged more than about 5 of them) are incredibly unsavory people and probably deserve worse.

It's a matter of principle. Do we torture or do we not? And if that's torture, I don't care if that person would cut your head off given the chance, it's still torture and we should be better than that, no?
