State Department ‘Unaware’ of Zelikow’s Torture Dissent

Thanks!

awhile.

and if it does did he send it on to whoever, or did he write one up and keep it for himself

A whole lot of wondering going on

it seems like he's hinting it does..

or manage the perception of his being a good guy, I'm sure something could be found.

and maybe it never did

Maybe we'll know sooner or later

between this guy and the State Department as reported by the WaHo!

lol

:crazy:

Kinda like, "Guaranteed to restore hair".

to go against the entire Bush administration, this is the guy who told them what they were doing is illegal. Why are we picking on him? Or do I have this wrong?

And do we know he's telling the truth now?

He's Condi Rice's right hand guy. He'd pretty much have to show me two pieces of ID and his tattoo just for me to believe he's actually himself.

lol

look out of my window.

wasn't sure who he was. However if he is willing to testify and name names I'm willing to ignore the fact that he is an asshole and cut him some slack on his own crimes. Kind of like getting a hitman to testify against a mob boss..

I guess my deal is, before we enshrine these guys (because there will be a lot of them), let's remember who they are when they CYA,

listening to him as long as one keeps in mind he has a personal agenda in coming out now and it is not, imo, because it is his 'patriotic duty' to do so.

Zelikow has been on my TV more in the last 12 hours than any time since 9/11

from some of you hardier souls than I am. :hi:

"Well, then, let me out of it."

Zelikow was adamant against torture but kept the torture tape from the 9/11 Commission, what's wrong with that picture?

Former members and staffers of the 9/11 Commission have concluded that the CIA withheld videotapes of harsh interrogation sessions even after specific and "very detailed" requests about the two prisoners whose tapes were later destroyed, according to a review of classified material by the panel.

A seven-page report for former commission members by the panel's former executive director, Philip Zelikow, says the group made broad initial requests for intelligence information from interrogations, "including repeated requests for very detailed information" about the interrogations and how they were carried out.

The commission also made specific inquiries about the interrogations of suspected al-Qaeda operatives Zayn al-Abidin Muhammed Hussein, commonly known as Abu Zubaida, and Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, the report says. The CIA revealed earlier this month that tapes of those prisoners' interrogations were destroyed in 2005.

"None of the officials involved in these exchanges disclosed the existence of recordings that might have contained facts material to the Commission's questions on these points," according to the report, which was disclosed yesterday by the New York Times.

The Dec. 13 memo essentially confirms earlier complaints that, by withholding and then destroying the tapes, the CIA had not complied with the panel's requests for a broad array of documents and other material about CIA detainees

I know what many of us would have done, I know many progressives would have quit their jobs, some would have even gone to prison to get the truth out, but neo-cons are weak and greedy, and I can't fault them for not wanting to end up on unemployment or in jail. So I'm not sure how to deal with this dude, should I be grateful that he at least made an attempt and is now talking freely or do I hold him accountable for following orders?

edit: Ok my bad for not checking on who this idiot is.
