This thread started as 'Torture versus collateral damage; the bigger evil?', a valid exchange has followed, although now it appears to more of a debate on economics. I can discern links earlier on, not so much now.

Now please carry on.

One day I will try to separate out the diversion.

What more can you say about torture beyond it being a tool of the weak and the twisted?
