BalancedPolitics.org - Terrorist Prisoner Torture (Pros & Cons, Arguments For and Against): "Since the War on Terror began on 9/11, we've captured hundreds of Islamic terrorists along with the capture of Saddam Hussein himself. The War against Iraq has brought in thousands more prisoners with potential knowledge of upcoming terror attacks.

Captives like Saddam Hussein and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the 'CEO of Al Qaeda', have intimate knowledge of operations in Al Qaeda and of locations of terrorist cells around the world. Iraqi prisoners often have knowledge of terrorist attacks planned against American soldiers. Unfortunately, when a capture of this magnitude is publicized, terrorists quickly change locations, plans, and communication methods. Thus, any intelligence we can gather from such captures is only good for a short time. The question becomes, should we torture these captures to obtain the information while it's still good? In an attempt to prevent another 9/11, should we resort to the gruesome level of torture employed by the Saddam-led or Osama-led organizations themselves? "
