These scenes could be used to advocate for the use of torture in order to obtain vital information from a terrorist suspect. It is not entirely clear in this commentary that the argument is made in its behalf. I would say that there is a duty in such a situation to do whatever it takes to find out what is needed in order to preserve the lives of the innocent. If the guilty must be sacrificed, then so be it.
Update:
Part of the reason for putting up this post was reports like this. Unfortunately, the government is in charge of the information dissemination, so whatever you get from them, no matter where the source, can be taken with a grain of salt.
