[lbo-talk] Americans sorta like torture if it works

[X]

Any military organization which knows that its secrets have been compromised by the capture of key personale would change their plans almost immediately and scrape the plans that were compromised. 
 
Does anyone remember the movie "Battle of Algiers?" There the Algerian terrorists are tortured by the French immediately because it was policy of the terror cells to relocate and replan within 48 hours of a members disappearence. I know it was just a movie but it would make al quida really stupid not to have similar policies.

What I don't understand is why you are perpetrating this bullshit? Are you
a fool, or are you a psychopath? Or both perhaps?
