I mean, there can be a valid debate on the moral cost of torturing X people to to (potentially) save Y lives with the information extracted.

But torturing someone is stupid and doesn't work, so we don't even need to have that debate. I'd probably be in the same camp. I'm against torture because it's stupid. I haven't bothered to think through the moral implications because why bother?
