Die Kunst des selektiven Zitierens in Hochform.

Im Artikel wird das Thema Folter, Druck, Befragungsmethoden aus 
verschiedenen Blickwinkeln betrachtet und diskutiert.  Am Ende wird

	"Chances are you are going to get the wrong person and risk 
	damage or killing them." In the end, he said, there has to 
	be another way.
