10. I am NOT trying to be funny about this..

Seriously... has anybody given any thought to trying bombing prisoners like him relentlessly with lifestyle bribes nobody can turn down?
I am NOT being naive. If we wage a constant attack of good food, blonde companions, good quarters, American TV - soft porn and carefully chosen programs, we would at least find out just how fanatic those guys are.
I believe 5 years of that - and a promise of the same for the rest of his life - would get us more cooperation than torture.

Short version of above....we know torture doesn't work. Maybe a rich American lifestyle would.

Has anybody tried this?
