It has already been demonstrably proven that torture does not accomplish the end of saving more lives. Torture simply makes the tortured person say whatever he/she thinks their torturers want to hear. Consider John McCain who named the starting lineup, defensive line of the Green Bay Packers as his squadron mates.
