Should anyone engaged in torture be brought up on criminal charges?
Yes

If so, how high up the chain of command would you be willing to start? Where should such a prosecution start?
All the way to the top and as for the prosecutions I would suggest that as they are war crimes the trial should be held in the winning nation , so ship Rummy and co to Tehran and wave them goodbye with a happy smile .
