Philippine intelligence put the screws to Murad. In Camp Crame, a military installation on the outskirts of Manila, he was subjected for 67 days to what Philippine intelligence reports delicately refer to as TI, or tactical interrogation. By the time he was handed over to the Americans, interrogators had extracted everything they thought they needed to know.

Murad today is healthy and serving his time in the PI, no permanent harm was done. In fact, it is said that he cracked only after being told that Israeli interrogators were being brought in: he was "psyched out" into full confession mode.

OTOH, we in the USA would prefer to see more 9-11s then dirty our hands with the "TI" of known terrorists in our custody, (such as the Minnesota 747 pilot trainee wannabee who gave us all the finger in court today).
