Way too many torture defenses seem based in a desire for revenge. It's one thing to reluctantly accept dehumanizing behavior because you think it's the only way to keep people safe. "But the terrorists wouldn't treat you as human!" Yeah, so? Don't you want to be better than them?

But does this surprise you? It is the basis of most pro-death penalty arguments as well... except we euphemistically call it "justice" instead of revenge.
