The rest of the world might not be as OK with US torturing people, especially foreign people. If you would torture just your own citizens it would be more OK, just like in North Korea, Soviet Union, China, etc.
Well, you have so much "friends" already, so I guess it won't hurt that much to make a few more.
By the way, one big reason for Soviet Union's economic fall was its massive spy, etc. program. Not that it would have anything similar to US anti-terrorist program.
