If you noticed, I wasn't advocated these methods as such, but it's worth pointing out that the issue is a bit more complicated than it's usually painted.

To the best of my knowledge we haven't been waterboarding enemy troops in uniforms captured on a battlefield, i.e. during the early parts of the Iraq War. You know--the kind of conscripts and volunteers captured in older kinds of wars, who when the war ends, will cheerfully leave the POW camps and go back to running a drugstore.

There are names of some people we have used these methods on. Most of them have not been drugstore owners.

Of course, this may not change anything. But I think when we're drawing an equivalence between using this kind of interrogation on a captured Marine, a uniformed Iraqi soldier, or some poor schlub hauled in for random questioning, as opposed to Khalid Sheik Mohammed, all the information should be kept on the table.
