CIA Puts Harsh Tactics On Hold

It is barbaric, and brings its practitioners far too close for comfort to the level of the people they profess to be fighting. It's also very damaging to America's reputation in the rest of the world.

I agree and wish to add that using the more aggressive techniques has no proven gaurantee of greater success than less extreme techniques and may actually lead to more false information than true according to what I have read.

Gmmm...Believe me, Chewbacca, every one told KGB what it needed to know, including the truth.

The KGB was VERY effective, just because they were evil, don't believe the propaganda that they were ineffective.
