It does not make the torture by the USA to be any less abhorrent.

It is torture.

It is illegal.

It is something that civilised countries do not do.
What you and others of your ilk consider torture that America participates in is good laughing material for our enemies. America is a wimp when it comes to what needs to be done to keep us safe and help prevent another 911 or protect our military men and women serving us around the world.

I'd like to know what you consider torture is? What kinds of torture America supposedly participates in?

Would you be more specific? There is evidence of U.S. Government sponsored torture of that kind?

Do you also speak out about other atrocities that are committed around the world or do you limit yourself to only complaining about what you see as an issue within America?
