letter to the editor:

Against torture but for drone strikes?

How can those like Dianne Feinstein, John McCain and others who oppose enhanced interrogation not also oppose drone strikes?

In enhanced interrogation, we capture people we suspect of being guilty of something bad and we interrogate (or torture, if you like) them to obtain information from them.

In a drone strike, we locate people we suspect of being guilty of something bad and we “murder” them with a missile strike.

My goodness, how can you oppose one and greenlight the other?
