The torture report shows CIA manipulating both DOJ and WH to get torture reauthorized in May 2005, using custody of Abu Faraj al-Libi to do so (a trick CIA repeatedly used). And we know CIA continued to lie to DOJ abt what they were doing. Haspel would have been part of that.
The biggest danger of Haspel isn't, IMO, that she'll restart torture. It's that she'll use the same anti-democratic bureaucratic tactics CIA/she used w/torture to protect the agency after it executes another stupid order from POTUS.
And THAT's why @RonWyden emphasized the timing of Haspel pushing to continue torture in 2005-2007: bc she CAN'T, as she did wrt 2002 torture, blame the panic after 9/11. She was pushing to keep torture 5.5 years later.
I got the feeling that we'll be contracting out interrogation.
We already are and have been, even under Obama.
Thank you
I think the atmosphere is much different than right after 9-11. She might be, too.
. Aye. It's just sad that our "pemier intelligence agency" is called, CYA.
Which very much includes torture, by CIA or proxies.
Especially the latter. Yep
She gets rewarded to a top position despite having tortured people. Bad signal for the agency employees.
She won’t have to.
Although restarting torture is pretty bad too
