With all of the torture that has been reported in Iraq and Guantanamo, Why would Iran or any of the other Middle East nations even worry about pressuring for statements by using torture? This is the Can of Worms that BushCo has opened!

in hotel Guantanamo they don't torture they use "aggressive interrogation methods" but fortunately they don't use them on actual human beings just "enemy combatants". Maybe Iran used our way.

No, no! They were not tortured, they were simply terrorized the Muslim way, and were made to state whatever statements they were asked, in an effort to save their sorry butts.
Remember that Iran asked England to apologize for trespassing in Iranian waters (a super Iranian lie), and England refused insisting that Iran should free the sailors unconditionally. Getting therefore the poor sailors to apologize and admit that the Iranians are as holy as the next saint in heaven, was Iran's second best way out of the crisis with some dignity.

Everyone knows that torture was unheard of in the Middle East before BushCo took office.
Good question. Way to be on the ball!

Torture stopped with the Nuremberg Trials and the Nuremberg Code.
Stop thinking that your fellow man is evil. Muslims don't harm others. It's against the Koran.

Since Iran has a history or torture, it wouldn't surprise me

Yes, I believe that they were tortured, and yes I believe that Bush is responsible. The only consolation is that he can never ever be president again!

Either tortured or threatened.
