"If it's ok to threaten to kill a prisoner for information would it be ok to rape his wife to make him talk?"

Wouldn't it? If you had heard that there was a rocket attack planned today to bring down a helicopter full of American soldiers, you had a man in custody who knew the details of the plan and if you could get him to talk you could avert the attack and save, say, a dozen lives, what line would you stop at? If raping the man's wife would somehow make him talk, wouldn't you do it to save the lives of 12 of your men? Or even just 1 man's life?

No it wouldn't. And even contemplating that it would be shows you have a sickness that you should seek treatment for.

If one has information pertaining to the threat you mitigate the threat, you don't resort to barbarian techniques to get information, that would likely be a lie anyway. But hey, next time I have a tough question for you I'll ask you for your wife's or girlfriends name and address ok. Cause you think it's ok.
