Although torture by the USA has been condemned and found to be counterproductive, some are
still promoting it's use and claiming that it led to Osama Bin Laden.

'Zero Dark Thirty' Torture Depiction Is Wrong
Sen. John McCain watched the new movie Zero Dark Thirty and said it "left him sick" because
it suggests the CIA's harsh interrogation techniques led the United States to find Osama bin
Laden, the AP reports.

Said McCain: "Not only did the use of enhanced interrogation techniques on Khalid Sheikh
Mohammed not provide us with key leads on bin Laden's courier, Abu Ahmed, it actually
produced false and misleading information."

McCain spent 5 1/2 years enduring brutal treatment by his North Vietnamese captors during
the Vietnam War and has insisted that the waterboarding of al-Qaida's No. 3 leader did not
provide information that led to the bin Laden's compound in Pakistan.

The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.
