From what the "experts" have been saying, including James Dunnigan, who is a pretty reliable war/terrorism expert, they can make you give up almost any info they want. Dunnigan pointed out, moreover, that these Arab guys are NOT well trained like the former KGB people in resisting these "techniques." Course, my favorite is the interrogation scene from "Payback." Does anyone think this is out of the question?

I wish I could remember exactly who said this but the other day I was watching a news channel (probably Fox since that is mainly the channel I watch) and one of the guests said that his information from sources he had involved in the interrogation of this person was that he was not very forthcoming with info and it was very slow getting info out of him. Further, that he was changing his stories throughout the interrogation process. While they might not be trained to withstand interrogation, they seem to be very adept in lying and giving out false information. All you have to do is look back on the various false info that has been obtained from the interrogations at GITMO and other captured terrorists.

Also, on another subject, just yesterday a former interrogator was being interviewed and he said that physical torture is not the best method of interrogating because the captive will almost always say whatever you want them to say eventually but that does not necessarily mean it is the truth.
