President Trump’s nomination of Gina Haspel to lead the C.I.A. has revived debate over the agency’s post-Sept. 11 interrogation program and still-murky questions about her involvement. Now, on the eve of her Senate confirmation hearing, a striking voice is trying to join that fray: Khalid Shaikh Mohammed.
Mr. Mohammed, the principal architect of the Sept. 11 attacks, was captured in March 2003 and tortured by the C.I.A. This week, he asked a military judge at Guantánamo Bay for permission to share six paragraphs of information about Ms. Haspel with the Senate Intelligence Committee.
Ms. Haspel ran a black-site prison in Thailand where another high-level detainee was tortured in late 2002. But it is not known whether she was involved, directly or indirectly, in Mr. Mohammed’s torture. Mr. Mohammed was held in secret C.I.A. prisons in Afghanistan and Poland.

If terrorists are complaining about her, she is definitely the right person for the job.
Why is a 9/11 planner still breathing?
It was legal when this happened. A big nothing burger.
Does he think his Islamic brother is still president?
This f’in POS should have been fed to hogs years ago. Why is he still alive?
Mr. Mohammed should have had a 9mm round through his motor many years ago.
If she was she should be immediately promoted and awarded a medal.
The 9/11 victims were unavailable for comment.
Because Bush never reconciled the imperatives of war with the currents of peace.
Why do we listen to terrorists, whores and Porno manufacturers give us advice about others morals? Have we no morals of our own?!
It should still be legal today. These aren’t just enemy combatants, like we faced in WWI & II. These are evil, murderous thugs for whom torture is more than appropriate — whether we get any useful info from them as a result or not.
I like Ann Coulter’s comment about how she should only be confirmed if she promises to waterboard more terrorists more vigorously.
In my book Gina Haspel may be THE friggin’ coolest appointment Trump has made.
The only outrage is that he didn’t assume room temperature lo those many years ago.
Any Congress person who agrees to listen to this guy in the context of confirming this nominee should have his head beaten in with a baseball bat with extreme prejudice.
Probably because anti-American non Christian communist sympathizers intent on replacing white Christians with third worlders from s-hole countries control all levels of American Media and the three branches of the American government, with the exception of the German American President, who they are trying to destroy 24/7.
US Senators taking the advice and council of terrorists.
Think about it.
Bull$h!t, Ole Shake Mohammed is trying out for a job w/CNN, MSNBC as a contributer.
Are we the only country in the world that would let someone who masterminded the destruction of American & iconic pieces of America to give a statement about what he has suffered???????
Sick.
