Alan Dershowitz, Professor of Torture.

According to Dershowitz, torture isn´t a bad thing
if good people do it for a noble cause. When in human
history have torturers thought that they are bad
people and are doing evil things for a wrong cause?
Who will choose, which torturer is a good guy
and who is a bad guy? Alan Derschowitz? Or are
Americans (and some of their most cherished allies)
always good guys and the rest bad guys?

Do we end in a same kind of situation like we have
with the nuclear weapons? The "right" countries can
have them and the rest don´t? So that the United
States (and it´s most cherished allies) can torture
people and "rogue states" can´t?
