    Newly released cables provide at times graphic detail on the techniques the CIA used to interrogate Qaeda captives at a secret prison in Thailand that Gina Haspel oversawhttps://nyti.ms/2B4WrEm

        Whatever it takes to save American Lives is the way I look at it. Better yet, the UK would do the same things. Protect its citizens.

        Did you serve? Or do you just profit on those who do? Torture saves no one. It inflames hatreds & retaliation that costs more lives. Aside from that fact, it gains little or no reliable data that cannot be gotten using persuasions & psychological means. You sound like a salesman.

        Go spend a couple of years under the shadow of our corrupt government as they randomly target people who have nothing to do with America before opening your defense industry pie hole. We lose more soldiers to equipment failure than to enemy fire. Lowest bidder contracted crap.

        This is one area I’m not sure why people get worked up. This MFer killed American soldiers. Torture his whole damn family and then kill them. Fuck with America, get caught, you and your family die. Painfully.

        Did you not read that malfunctioning equipment & weaponry, made by the military manufacturers we pay our billions in taxes to, kills more troops than terrorists?! They're Americans killing Americans and profiting. So then the super-wealthy industrialists should get tortured, too.

        I'm still waiting for the DOD audit. It seems they keep extending their deadline because they aren't ready to be held accountable to the American people for how they spend taxpayer dollars. NO agency of the government should have that HUGE allocation of $$$$$ w/o accountability.

        Don’t forget, Trump supports torture Obama’s didn’t. That is why Trump wanted her to be CIA director, she further supported and enforceds his agenda.

        Yes, actually giving them chocolate works very well. Ask professional interrogators.

        Oh, I thought we were talking about a literal omelette that the CIA made in the black site kitchen, thanks for clarifying that 🙄 So you don't actually know what was gained by torturing al-Nashiri.

        The rationale? “It’s not in the US.” To all the ones saying “they’re terrorist,” they’re *suspected* terrorists. When it happens to our soldiers do they get a free pass because they “think” we’re “terrorists?” It’s not justified. When we do it, we’re as bad as them.
