WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The CIA's harsh interrogations of terrorist
detainees during the Bush era didn't work, were more brutal than
previously revealed and delivered no "ticking time bomb" information
that prevented an attack, according to an explosive Senate report
released Tuesday.
The majority report issued by the Senate
Intelligence Committee is a damning condemnation of the tactics --
branded by critics as torture -- the George W. Bush administration
deployed in the fear-laden days after the September 11, 2001 terrorist
attacks. The techniques, according to the report, were "deeply flawed"
and often resulted in "fabricated" information.
The report is
reigniting the partisan divide over combating terrorism that dominated
Washington a decade ago. Democrats argue the tactics conflict with
American values while leading members of the Bush administration insist
they were vital to preventing another attack.

Or how many U.S. held detainees were beheaded while in U.S. custody ?
Yawn..................all this went on LONG before Bush became president. And it continues to go on to this day. Anyone who thinks that Clinton, Obama, Bush 41, Reagan, Carter...etc etc....are in ANY way innocent of EXACTLY the same thing has spent very little time paying attention.
Or how many were let go after being caught fighting against US Forces because they had CIA credentials as "assets" in area.
