&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;“Al Qaeda is improving the last key aspect of its ability to attack the U.S. — the identification, training and positioning of operatives for an attack in the homeland,” said Michael McConnell, director of national intelligence, which oversees all 16 U.S. intelligence agencies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Intelligence officials also said they used a controversial interrogation tactic known as “waterboarding,” which some people regard as torture, only on three senior al Qaeda members early in the war on terror and that it has not been used in five years.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;you see that?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;inteligence gathered through water boarding&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;now how valuable is that?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;not at all, they will say anything to stop the torture, AND if it IS true, we would have gotten MUCH more information and far more actionable through the other methods of gathering information&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;they cannot insist on defining a crime, it’s torture, we prosecuted people for war crimes who committed it&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;if he wants to claim it’s not torture he needs to do that before a court&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;an international court would be best I might add, no roberts or alito, that is a conflict of interest&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;as far as john mccain;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;let me tell everyone here, I was proud of john during the 9/11 hearings, it really looked to me like he was not afraid to hold the administration to account, i remember specifically when he forced condi to tell us the president knew we were about to be attacked, it was a beutiful thing to behold&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;what happened to that man?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;the fact that a breach of the Conventions or of this Protocol was committed by a subordinate does not absolve his superiors from …responsibility … if they knew, or had information which should have enabled them to conclude in the circumstances at the time, that he was committing or about to commit such a breach and if they did not take all feasible measures within their power to prevent or repress the breach. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;not only to nancy, but to every single member of both houses&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;these are now criminalsof the same order of those who committed torture and watched others commit torute in nazi germany&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;what have we become?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;let’s be clear here;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the president has admitted to torture in at least three occasions to at least three people&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and he reserves the right to do it some more&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;it is a crime to NOT prosecute&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Under the doctrine of command responsibility, members of congress might be incurring legal liability under international law for tolerating Bush’s infractions.  Per the Wikipedia:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;The first international treaty to comprehensively codify the doctrine of command responsibility was the Additional Protocol I (“AP I”) of 1977 to the Geneva Conventions of 1949.[4][6][7] Article 86(2) states that:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;
    the fact that a breach of the Conventions or of this Protocol was committed by a subordinate does not absolve his superiors from …responsibility … if they knew, or had information which should have enabled them to conclude in the circumstances at the time, that he was committing or about to commit such a breach and if they did not take all feasible measures within their power to prevent or repress the breach. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Someone should point this out to Nancy.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
