To what degree are we willing to endorse torture and physical/corporal punishment and under what criteria do/can we justify it?

Asked by throssog (795points) July 17th, 2011

From Iraqi/ Afghan prisons, secret CIA prisons, to heightened interrogation techniques, to actual whippings and beatings, to physical rapes and holding captives to our whims…how far can we see ourselves going and under what provocations would we extend this limit. Further : How would/could this be justified?
