buctootim Posted 21 December, 2014 Share Posted 21 December, 2014 Just to back up my previous point, the use of torture on IRA suspects in the 1970's led to a sharp upturn in IRA membership, according to an advisor of Blair's on 5live just now. Exactly. Torturing people blows out the water any claim to be the good guys and the legitimate government and that your opponents are evil and should be shunned.

I'm slowly coming round to the view that war probably isn't a good thing, for either side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
