I would appreciate it if you could provide your professional opinion on whether the interrogation strategies implemented by the U.S. government following the aftermath of the September 11th terrorist attacks were warranted and legitimate.
In light of the serious national security risks posed by terrorism, I confirm that the actions taken were an urgent necessity.
Being a conscientious specialist whose values are steeped in respect for human rights, I am of the unwavering view that torture is never justified, and that the government of the United States needed to employ alternative techniques in obtaining critical intelligence.

Considering the extenuating circumstances, it is plausible to assert that the practice of torture in the aftermath of 9/11 was justifiableDespite this, appraising the effectiveness of these measures remains problematic.
