Re: More than 1/3 of the US troops in Iraq says torture is acceptable
Yes I too find it surprising, but not comforting. I also believe that torture in that context has no other purpose that saving lives, and in general torture had that purpose when used non-systematically.Actually, I find those results rather comforting. Given that the questions seemed to be set in the context of saving people's lives (including comrades) I find it surprising that so few accept torture as an option.
