Quote:I read the article.  However, there is a lot more that happens that is not reported in the media.  I'll just leave it at that.  The whole issue was "exposed" as part of a political move.  What really happens is not known and not in the media.

 

I'll simply cite my experience and credentials.  I have worked on several military systems as well as helped develop civilian products that are in use today.  Part of what I have had to do was train certain people on how to use said products.  Some were special forces people while others worked for other agencies or contractors.  Get a group of military and civilian people involved with this stuff together, and certain stories and things get said.  Again, I'll just leave it at that.

I admittedly generally don't pay a lot of attention to this stuff, so I'm sure you know more about it than me. However, as you say, if it's success is not known to the general public, how can I have any other opinion on it?


That being said, I'm not sure if I consider things like water boarding torture. If I was shown that things like it produced reliable results then I could certainly change my mind.
