I did not ask for the political grandeur of torture, I asked if there was cases of lasting psychological harm (notice the word potentially, everything has an risk factor) Side note, how can you say we gain nothing from waterboaring yet, when all the memos has yet to be released? that said, Abu Zubayda broke after 35 seconds of being waterboarded, because of that they were able to stop an number of terrorists attacks. I didn't know terrorists get citizen treatment to me, I mean since we are not at war and play nice maybe they won't find our values so offensive. Maybe the rest of there community will give up, and join them in the treatment we offer. That said, I'm not here to debate the "best" method to do things. I'm simply stating my own opinion and trying to slice threw some misconceptions people have about waterboarding.
That said, saying that "torture/waterboarding is simply skipping ahead without all the information.
That said go look up the (some) memos that where recently released
1 Corinthians 10: 31-33
31 Whether therefore ye eat or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 32 Give none offense, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God. 33 Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.
