But we need some check to keep the government from torturing more broadly. Absent immediately saving another life, torture is cruel as defined by the Constitution

These past 2 years as America has rushed headlong towards becoming a Socialist Country I have studied the United States Constitution intently. While not a rocket scientist I am positive I saw no reference to the legality or the morality of the use of torture to protect the citizens of the Nation. Perhaps you could post the Article and section where you found this definiton of torture?

The liberal bleeding hearts protest the possibility of returning subhuman feces like this prisoner back to his HOME in Saudi Arabia. Instead, they want them in the USA, of course not where they happen to live. The ultimate placement of these monsters will be interesting to watch unfold.
