That is your opinion, doesn't make it true. Sorry.
Torture, interrogation and needing information is not new. Much is written on it. Torture, including waterboarding, is much better at getting a confession, as even the innocent will confess, but not good at getting real information. the litature says you're every bit as likely to get misinformation. And we have an example of this. Remember al Libi? He gave us all kinds of misinformation that we used to sell the Iraq war. It was true. But, hell, we used it. Misinformation led us down the wrong path, and this is what is most comon with torture.
I am sure you can prove your claim here? Give it a go.

In March 2006, the CBS News program, "60 Minutes" investigated the deaths of two Afghan prisoners, including Dilawar, revealing that authorization for the abuse came from the "very top of the United States government". "60 Minutes" correspondent Scott Pelley interviewed retired Army Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, who was appointed chief of staff by Secretary of State Colin Powell in 2002, during George W. Bush’s first administration. Willie V. Brand, one of the soldiers convicted of assault and maiming in the deaths of the two prisoners, and Brand’s commanding officer, Capt. Christopher Beiring, were also featured in the program.

Even as the young Afghan man was dying before them, his American jailers continued to torment him.
The prisoner, a slight, 22-year-old taxi driver known only as Dilawar, was hauled from his cell at the detention center in Bagram, Afghanistan, at around 2 a.m. to answer questions about a rocket attack on an American base. When he arrived in the interrogation room, an interpreter who was present said, his legs were bouncing uncontrollably in the plastic chair and his hands were numb. He had been chained by the wrists to the top of his cell for much of the previous four days.

He also added a detail that had been overlooked in the investigative file. By the time Mr. Dilawar was taken into his final interrogations, he said, "most of us were convinced that
the detainee was innocent."
