Guardian: Reports from Washington on a class between the Obama Administration and the Senate Intelligence Committee when it comes to CIA torture memos, " Senators clash with Justice Department lawyer over CIA intelligence memos...CIA nominee Caroline Krass angers intelligence committee by claiming legal opinions on torture are beyond its scope ".
Lets Get Real:
This shows that the Obama Administration has become realistic when it comes to the torture of terrorists, when that clock is ticking you have to do what is needed, torture is not the first thing used, but in extreme cases it has to be used, it is an interesting question, is it better to be killed by a Obama drone or ducked under water for a few minutes. One could postulate that terrorist would take the water torture to being killed by a drone. Of course the official US line that under Obama there is no more torture just a massive increase in drone strikes that sometimes takes out innocent people, this blog does NOT credit that for one second, one assumes that the CIA or other off the book agencies do the job, a President would not ask, he might get told, after 9/11 and 7/7 and other incidents ALL methods have to be used, its sad fact but that is the truth, the West can not afford to be PC or asleep at the Helm.
