More Details on Hostage Rescue

The Scotsman has a few additional details on the hostages who were rescued in Iraq.

Acting on this, the SAS was able to launch a snatch raid on Wednesday night to seize two of the kidnappers or their associates. It seems that the prisoners were "persuaded" to give up information on the whereabouts of the hostages. This might have been done with the offer of a financial inducement or the use of some of the more extreme interrogation techniques criticised by human rights groups.

"Peruaded" to give up information? You can't mean....the exertion of physical or mental stress or other means to give us information on where the hostages were?? Someone call the ACLU! Return the hostages - the way we got them back was unfair and will not be looked upon favorably by our friends in San Francisco, Boston, or the Left side of Congress.
