Dick Cheney and the CIA
From Reuters
“Cheney, who has emerged as a vocal defender of Bush administration policies since leaving the White House, said the intelligence obtained from harsh interrogation techniques had saved lives”
Will Dick Cheney ever learned that his methods never resulted in any real information? Will ever admit that the interrogation was done so it would justify the views of Bush Administration?
My opinion is that 09/11 made Bush and Cheney excessively paranoid about the real level of threats. Therefore, out of their fears, they resorted to torture because they needed their paranoid fears confirmed.
And Dick Cheney is very afraid to be brutally honest what happened there in 2001 and 2002. And I doubt that Cheney will never tell the truth because he is not capable telling the truth.
For him to tell the truth would be a miracle indeed.
