if you are willing to foot the bill for housing terrorists at the 4 or 5 star hotel of your choice, by all means go for it.

It's pretty obvious that the old adage, "you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar" applies to this intelligence gathering operation.

Other approaches with prisoners are much more effective than torture. If all of the Iraq citizens that we pick up in our sweeps were fairly and humanely treated during their stay with us it would be extremely effective as public relations toward demonstrating that we are there to help them. In a controlled environment such as a detention center, intelligence agents can be mixed in with the population and quickly get much more info than by torture.

The only downside to a more humane approach is that sadistic christofascists in the Bush Administration won't have any fun.
