I think you must not have read most of the posts. No one is sympathizing with them. I am all for executing them with a carrot peeler once they are found guilty. What we are discussing is how torture does us more damage than it does good and is not an effective means at retrieving the reliable information needed to protect our citizens. It is more likely to send us off on wild goose chases...expending energy and manpower we cannot afford to waste.
Then you add in how easy it is for administrations to abuse the practice to prop up there own false arguments and agendas you have a whole other negative with which we have to deal.
