Look. There is no way, this punk is going to escape the law. We have him, the evidence is overwhelming and he's going away forever. At least if Miranda is read, it's one less thing the defense can use. Where is the harm? If there is a connection to an actual terror organization, we can find out anyways whether he talks or not. The whole thing about torture and so on is reactionary and emotional, IMHO.

The whole talk of torture is really about revenge, not intelligence.
