Pity the Poor Terrorists?

Decent Americans, who are nothing if not all "touchy-feely" when it comes to foreigners, especially illegal ones, are buzzing over the recently-released report detailing how our CIA agents mistreated terrorist prisoners in an effort to get information about what plans were afoot to murder, maim and torture more Americans. People are shocked that the detainees were slapped, and yelled at by several people all at once, and dragged back and forth down a long hallway, barefoot no less, and even slammed against the wall in some cases!

I guess I am not a decent American because I don't give a crap. I say hurt them and hurt them bad if it makes them talk. And if they won't talk, then just haul them up to a high floor and throw them out of a burning building, maybe one as tall as the World Trade Center used to be. Or take a whole bunch of them over to an abandoned office building scheduled for demolition and sit them at desks and give them some filing work to do, and maybe some coffee and donuts to sweeten the deal, and then crash an airplane into their heads. (One of them could be the pilot.)

I suppose this is why I have never run for public office.
