“This guy’s full of crap! “
I will hazard a guess that you have never, ever, interrogated anyone while in a position of authority. If I am wrong, tell me so.
“But, you can’t TALK them into talking!”
Didn’t read enough of the article to understand the concept, I see.
Here’s a little morality play I like to do for proponents of the “ice cream and cake” school of interrogation. I’ve never gotten a believable answer yet:
The dirty nuke is planted somewhere upwind of your family.
It goes off in one hour. Evacuation of the area is not an option.
You have the guy who knows where it is.
What do you do?
Part of the beauty of the internet is that you can engage a total stranger, in conversation, to whatever end. You have no idea who I am, nor my range of qualifications. I’m, virtually, certain that you have no experience in this field at all. No matter! You’re exercising your brain-cells and that’s a good thing!
