Luckiest People in the World Who Escaped Justice
(Rice, Cheney, Bush, Rumsfeld, Gonzales
Addington, Haynes, Yoo, Bybee, Tenet)
(And anyone else tied to this issue in anyway)
This blog has been dedicated to the issue of torture, or as
novices love to call it “enhanced interrogation,” which BTW does not exist.
Let’s be clear: The
sole purpose of torture is to inflict pain and not realistically gain
actionable and valuable intelligence for ground commanders.
That is a fact that all experienced and professional
interrogators know. Those who think otherwise are either (1) stupid and naïve,
(2) dumb and blind, or (3) sadistic, or possibly all three.
This article summarizes where we are today
regarding this ugly stain on our country. Is has gone away, legally-speaking for
those involved, but the nasty stench will linger forever.
The lead sentence in the article says it all: “Among
the many things to be said about the CIA’s Bush-era interrogation program, one
of the most important is that they got away with it.”
Our government allowed it, sanctioned it, by looking the
other way. We should all be ashamed.
