What will be an ideal response
Torture and intelligence have an uncomfortable association; recent reports prove that it was used extensively and authorized by the very highest levels of U.S. government to interrogate those suspected of involvement with al-Qaeda and other radical terror groups. Torture is specifically prohibited in the Eighth Amendment; however, courts have repeatedly denied relief to both foreign and domestic detainees under these protections. As recently as 2002 Category I,II,III were widely used by the U.S. on foreign soil, and yet the benefits of these tactics was found to not be as successful as previously reported by the CIA. The Military Commissions Act of 2006 combined with the USA PARTIOT Act of 2001 provided a means to not include those designates as enemy combatant with protections of the Fifth and Eighth Amendments. Opinions as to the continued use of enhanced interrogation techniques will vary, but they should be supported with valid points.
