The report said interrogators threatened Abdal-Nashiri, the alleged planner of the 2000 USS Cole bombing, by holding a power drill and handgun to his head. The Cole bombing killed 17 US sailors. The report also said they staged fake executions by having CIA officers and guards scream and yell in an adjacent cell and then leading the detainee past a hooded, motionless guard -- who was lying on the floor and made to look like he had been shot. And of course we have heard for months about the "water boarding" of several of the detained terrorists including Khalid Shaikh Mohammad mastermind of the 911 attacks.
Now let me see...in addition to masterminding the 911 attacks, this is the same Khalid Shaikh Mohammad who cut Daniel Pearl's head off and proudly posted the video tape for the world to see. Am I missing something here? I wonder if the majority of Americans believe these terrorists were "abused".
The more I see of this administration actions, the more I wonder how they were ever elected. If Holder moves forward and actually presses criminal charges against these CIA interrogators, I believe you will see a revolt even larger than the rebellion against Obama's Health Care proposal.
And yes, this is the same Attorney General Eric Holder who dropped all charges against the members of the New Black Panther Party that were threatening people with billy clubs at polling stations during the last election.
