To believe it, they must lie to themselves. Torture has never proven reliable. But facts get in the way of political agendas be it global warming, economic stimulus, Enron, Saddam's WMDs, and even torture. To be an extremist means one must lie. "Reagan proved that deficits don't matter". Lie after lie.

Never expect an extremist to admit that the FBI gave up interrogating as soon as torture started. Once tortured, any useful information from a prisoner is lost. Anyone who learned before knowing from 24 would know that. FBI knew it. Once torture started, the FBI left. Torture that wacko extremists first claimed did not exist. How can they be honest when lying is necessary to be an extremist?
