Okay, the US government is systematically torturing the people caught in its world wide net against terrorism. But, if that's so how come there hasn't been any actual useful information extracted from them?
All terrorist plots so far have been uncovered without using information gained from torture. So, what does one gain from torturing terrorists?
If you are going to refute, use evidence to back up your claim.

Well, according to the Red Cross its going on, and they have traditionally been the judges of such things. As well as several people who have been released from Guantanamo Bay (after a couple of years without being accused) have told stories of torture.
And isn't the fact that you have no idea why you have been imprisoned the most cruel torture of them all?

Where is your evidence that the US has tortured anyone? You quote none or any source to find it. I haven't heard about it on CNN, CBS, or Fox. The girl making the militants build a nude pyramid? That may have been out of line, unnecessary, and illegal, but that is not torture! College frat's do worse than that ever year during pledge week!
Torture is what the Militants do when the tie your hands behind your back, make you kneel, blindfold you, make you beg for your life then slowing cut your throat, while videoing it to put on the internet. Torture is handcuffing your hands behind your back hanging you from the ceiling so your shoulders come out of socket, and breaking the bones in your hands and feet one by one. Do not confuse the two.
Militants in Cuba commiting suicide. So? They commit suicide all the time. Thats why they are called suicide bombers. It is what the idiots do.
Also how do you know what information they got from who and how. Have a hot-line with the CIA and the NIA? They let you know what information they are getting and how they get it? How can I get on that info listing? You want people who refute you to have evidence yet you ave none. And Michael Moore is not evidence. The only thing I would believe about him is he needs to take a bath.

You must be a "Far Left Wing Bleeding Heart Liberal ACLU Adoring Democrat" to espouse such obvious trash!
How would you know what info has been extracted if it's Classified!! Are you a resident of this Earth or just visiting?
What do you expect from hard core Muslim madmen who fervently believe the only good Jew and American is a dead one ... that goes for Far Left Bleeding Heart Liberals as well...
if you're an Infidel of course!
I am in favor of administering one of the many "Truth Serums"
to extract the info as soon as they are captured, then do what you will with them...BUT with all the Far Left Wing Bleeding Heart Radical ACLU Adoring Democrats what chance has that method of being used.
Torture against Terrorists? What about the beheading of innocents?
Not with one fell swoop but with a slow sawing motion back and forth across the neck while the victim screams in agony...
Ahh the joys of Islam! Do you have any comments about that quaint Isalmic custom?
Wake my Liberal friend and smell the blood!
Whose side are you on anyway! Don't say it we all can guess!

Use evidence??? You haven't shown any evidence that all terrorist plots so far have been uncovered without using information gained from torture. I'm not saying yes or no on the torture but I have seen roundups in Iraq and only a small percentage make the news which I am guessing is your source of information.
Your statements or baseless. If you want evidence, show yours first.
What you're doing is something we call, "Talking Smack".
Additional details.
People released from Guantamano Bay? You're basing this on the words of people that have murdered men, women and children in the name of Ala? LOL LOL LOL

It relies upon on the problem. There are different skill on getting thoughts yet once you want to torture, and its the most suitable actual way, then you definitely ought to do what you do. yet for one, when you're torturing a terrorist i imagine that ANY skill to get thoughts is critical.

Yes these poor terrorists. Who are we to hold and interrogate them? What have they done to anybody? When they behead their captives, we actually subject them to barking dogs, and worse yet some pain.
OK, enough of that. They show us absolutely no mercy, and are all about killing innocent people. Under what kind of reasoning should we even think of making sure they're comfortable and not stressed if we catch them?

You have no proof of your assertion. YOU must provide evidence to back up YOUR clain, not the other way around.
You must also prove there has not been any useful information obtained from the detainees.
The entire burden of proof is on you to support your allegations. Not for others to disprove your groundless theories.

EVIDENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
have you not seen Abu Ghreeb prison scandals, have you not seen the pictures of people got beaten up, bitten by dog, raped by dogs, electrified. Prisoners are committing suicide in Guantanamo Bay. Are you guys blind or may be your media has been putting something in the water! Did you not hear about your lovely solider Lindsay with her famous photo collection, did you not hear about the Iraqi girl who was rapped and those who raped her -two US soldiers- killed her and her parents. I disagree about torturing terrorists may give any information's.. you have not tried torturing the real terrorist, G BUSH, Rumsfield, Cheney....
