Even being a veteran I was having a problem with the subject of torture. But, I started thinking about 9/11, the Marine barracks in Lebanon, The USS COLE and all the American lives lost in these events and so many others as well. I also thought of the hostages taken and our POW's and the Films of Americans getting their heads cut off. I have come to this conclusion. If I could have stopped any one of these events, If I could have saved the life of just one American soldier, If I could keep imagining, that some of these victims, are my own wife, children, friends or neighbors, then I will tell you all that, unequivocally, that I would resort to anything to save them, torture included. How on Earth, could anyone say that they would not ?
