Would I like it? Of course not. Who would. But then again the worst I've done is voice my distaste for terrorists and wish them much suffering. Have I plotted or had any part in causeing the suffering of innocent woman and children? No.
And by "punishing the bad guys and move on" I meant of course, punish the guards and or any officers that gave specific orders and move on.

Well, you said "who cares?" and the answer is "I do."
Judging by the news, a whole lot of other americans care too. To me, the proper reponse to state-sponsored torture is not to forgive the government when they say "oops, my bad, sorry!"
