Torture?

I don’t understand all this discussion about torture. Where are the chemists? Don’t we have some drugs that would make these people very cooperative?

A few years ago someone I knew went into the hospital for a procedure. That gave him something just before surgery. He reported that the way he felt, if they told him they we’re going to cut off both legs, he would have been willing to help.

Surely, something like this could be used to elicit information from terrorist. Or is this considered inhumane? It sounds very humane to me.
