ABCNEWS.com : Poll: Torture Methods Opposed
Most Americans oppose torture techniques used on terror suspects, an ABC
News/Washington Post poll finds.

abcnews.go.com/sections/ us/Polls/torture_poll_040527.html - 50k - Cached - Similar pages   

Americans by nearly 2-to-1 oppose torturing terrorism suspects — but half believe the U.S. government, as a matter of policy, is doing it anyway. And even more think the government is employing physical abuse that falls short of torture in some cases.

 

Given pro and con arguments, 63 percent in an ABC News/Washington Post poll say torture is never acceptable, even when other methods fail and authorities believe the suspect has information that could prevent terrorist attacks.
