Real terrorists don't eat quiche

Barry Honey, Can We Talk About Torture?:

Unlike our Islamic terrorist enemies, we were not amputating fingers or extracting fingernails.  We were not gouging eyes from their sockets.  We were not applying high-amp electrical shocks to the genitalia of enemy combatants in our custody.  In fact, we were so darned civilized that the only shock in any of this is the degree of rancor with which our CIA protectors are now apparently regarded by a namby-pamby press and the Democrats in Congress seeking show trials and witch burnings.
