Justice Dep. supports torture. Are they evil, psichotic or just not very bright?

I vote for not very bright. I have always marvelled at the fact that these folks do not seem to understand that human beings have a limit to what they will withstand and at some point will tell you just about anything just to make the "interrogation" stop. Thus, torture tactics set up a "self-fulfilling prophecy" for the interrogators. They begin "knowing" you know something and are keeping it from them. They torture you until you finally tell them what they "knew" you knew all along; and then they strut and puff out their chests confident in the fact that they were able to "get you to talk." Bizarre psychology.
