Senate releases CIA torture report
#74
Tracy Riddle Wrote:It's pretty clear now that torture was done to elicit false confessions to a) link Al Qaeda to 9/11 (the 9/11 Commission relied heavily on statements by tortured suspects) and b) link Saddam to Al Qaeda (which led to the war with Iraq). It was not done to protect Americans.

It has actually hugely endangered Americans. All the better to seek more draconian laws and more military hardware to protect Americans.
