It’s telling that Pence’s propaganda tour included this. Not because it was a failure, but because they knew this would be perfectly fine with enough Americans that they could include it
Make no mistake, there will be somebody who says “well, those were adult men. Not kids. So see! It’s not so bad.” And if we’re setting the bar for our nation’s moral character at “not torturing children” that might be an argument that assuages your guilt
But it shouldn’t, because even if you choose that inhumane standard as your version of righteous, you know full well it’s a lie. If they let the press parade through there with Pence, they chose it over the spaces they didn’t want you to see for a reason.
