Well, I'd like to think that some things cross all kinds of boundaries, but truth be told, yeah - it's clearly been morally "okay" to torture this or that person or group of people at particular points in time or location(sometimes based upon a difference in moral frameworks-no less). That's the changing face of humanity, and our evolving "moral sense". Doesn't mean that you or I have to consider it as such (even they[the torturer]could change their minds in that regard).

Good point, it is more of a cultural phenomenon than a psychological one.
