There is little doubt that a report to be revealed next week will once again ignite a firestorm of controversy surrounding the interrogation methods used on suspected terrorists. The timing of it’s release is already being questioned. The long-suppressed report by the CIA’s inspector general to be released next week reveals that CIA interrogators staged mock executions as part of the agency’s post-9/11 program to detain and question terror suspects.

It’s easy to sit back and be a critic of the actions of the brave people on the front lines, while we’re back in the US; the Country those brave few are trying to protect. It saddens me when the media believes it’s alright to reveal the actions of the Agencies assigned to gather information for the protection of our people.
I don’t feel any thing done in the above story was abuse!we are at war with these people war is ugley…I feel the photo shoots were much worse then the above story.how many of our men that are detained only worry is a drill and waterboarding,a bug,Ect. this is a day in the park compaired to them.and in 20 or so years they will be sent home and have a party at the airport!
I agree completely with Richard. If those trying to protect us need to threaten people or use other such tactics, isn’t this better than the alternative? We need to remember that those being interrogated are not peace-loving folks — they want to act on their hatred, and the CIA and other protecting our country are trying to stop them!
