Alan Dershowitz, professor of law at Harvard, also supports the use of torture.

Freda Underhill makes a very generalized statement that Professor Dershowitz supports the use of torture.

What Freda Underhill does not tell us is that Professor Dershowitz has suggested that it be used in only very specific circumstances. Here are his own words:

"We should never under any circumstances allow low-level people to administer torture. If torture is going to be administered as a last resort in the ticking-bomb case, to save enormous numbers of lives, it ought to be done openly, with accountability, with approval by the president of the United States or by a Supreme Court justice."
