We need the moral high ground and our troops need the moral high ground because we've always believed we were better, we weren't like other armies--we didn't abuse people, we didn't torture, we didn't kill them. And to strip that core value from our troops is to strike at the very heart of the patriotism, the morale, the spirit, that animates the force of free men and women fighting for democracy.
--General Wesley Clark on torture
