#1 careful there with the "MSM gets it". Ruben's a tool in most all aspects, even if he occasionally hits it right (stopped clock and all that). He came to the SD Union Tribune from the Dallas MN after James O. Goldsborough (an even more rad lefty) got axed, posed as a "more moderate columnist". He usually decries border patrol and ICE raids, justifies MALDEF, Aztlan, et al, and generally is a pain in the ass, and generally wrong

#2 Ok, this won't be popular, but the problem with torturing people is that it says that they are important enough to keep alive. But they aren't. They should be dead. And their evil friends and colleagues should know that.

As for any information they may have, after Flight 94, may the passengers rest in peace, anyone trying to capture Americans is a fool (c.f. three Somali pirates). It is unlikely that any planning information, exposed by people we had captured and kept alive, would really prevent an attack, because in the event the attack would have been foiled by the common man or woman anyway.

It seems to me better that our enemies get no quarter even if they have or pretend to have some important information. Better that we kill all we can catch and fight the rest. The Predator strikes make that point every week.

Capturing them and putting them on ice for a while was ok. But it would be better to release them and let them die another day rather than keep them confined. Any information they may have is less important than the certainty of their demise.
