I'm aware of what the experts say on both sides, but as I stated earlier, it's mainly anecdotal evidence. A lot of the testimony against is also about torture in general, and not waterboarding specifically. I'd like to see the specifics from internal documents and memos and get some real clarity on this episode.
I'm not orthodox on this issue by any means. I just want to see the results of the waterboardings on the three detainees before passing my final judgment. Whether or not these activities garnered any significant results is what would sway me from reluctantly accepting a controversial technique and wanting it abolished.
