Karl Rove Says Ending Torture Will Aid Terrorist Recruting

Going against common wisdom, Rove says that if the U.S. stops torturing prisoners it will aid terrorist recruiting strategies.

"They can now take these memoranda and go to prospective, you know, recruits and say, This is the worst that the enemy, the United States, would ever do to you, and they’ve even forsworn these things. We can help you, prepare you to deal with these things, but even the enemy is so weak they’re not going to use these techniques on you."
