Have no delusions about your own superior morality in times of threat or torture. Most of you anyway..some people will somehow be true heroes no matter the conditions.   I have none about mine and I was trained at least intellectually to be a POW and I know I would have given in at some point. The green berets say we are 9 meals away from being savages. And someone said if someone has a bayonet in one hand and your baby in another you comply. I never ask myself why didn't people do more to save the people from the Holocaust etc...I know why...because if they did 10 of their family and neighbors would be killed. But I do ask myself why people do not do more when there is no danger..when you could save lives for 3 cents each a few years ago..it might be 10 cents now..just through Vitamin A pills...I ask myself why when there are people who will put themselves between those who would torture and kill the innocent and the innocent that others not only do not applaud them but castigate them and ridicule them and spit on them. Well, if we do that expect very hard choices that will come directly to you in the future...mg
