nerdgirl 0 #30 November 20, 2008 Given: the DCI GEN Hayden (now retired) acknowledged water boarding in Congressional testimony (until other evidence and testimony is presented, I give him credit for being honest); convictions (i.e., laws that were broken) for prisoner abuse and maltreatment in Iraq and abuse at Bagram in Afghanistan; the findings of the DoD’s (MG) Taguba report; the findings of the Army’s (MG) Fay report, which explicitly found that the abuse and maltreatment of prisoners at Abu Ghraib was tantamount to torture (p. 98 & p. 145); what’s been publically revealed about findings of the Army’s (still classified) Ryder report; documented medical evidence; the FOIA-obtained FBI memo stating interrogators from an ‘other-government-agency’ (OGA) & OGA contractors impersonated FBI agents and used “torture techniques” against Guantanamo detainees; and the library of other FOIA-obtained documents mostly on policy, there is little real basis to claim there was no use of torture. ---- -- - -- ---- W/r/t the comments by two of Sen Obama's advisors, my speculation is that it’s more of move toward a “Truth & Reconciliation”-esque policy. That would be the policy option that I would recommend pursuing. Pursuit of what might be perceived as vindictive retribution does not serve the interests of the US. Likewise, ignoring it, wishing it would ‘just go away,’ or being in denial about actions executed by individuals acting on the behalf of the USG does not serve US interests.
