Sometimes harsher methods need to be employed to gain the information one needs. On occasion even torture is known to be an effective method of interrogation but not always. What I dont understand is, what is the point of taking pictures? Do only what is necessary to gain the information you need. Interrogation should never be personal. If you allow emotions to be involved you start to lose sight of the objective. And that goes for both sides of the argument. The purpose of interrogation is to gain information that will be useful. And the method you use should be decided by the willingness of the subject to co operate aswell as what motivates them to give information. Sometimes the psychological approach works best and at other times a physical approach is the only option. Torture should never be employed as a form of retribution. This achieves nothing.
