But by giving this response, in essence you are condoning the use of torture. Because somebody watching on television right now in Syria, or with ties to Syria or some other country, will know that if they find something, we may use it. They've heard in this public committee and they've seen on television that CSIS has said that if we find it, we might just use it, so why wouldn't they try? The purpose of the recommendation was to stop the use of torture and to say that we will not cooperate with those countries that might use it.
What you're saying now is that we don't agree with the recommendation, and we're condoning it.
