Harsh is such a meaningless word...

Productive is a much better word.

"Some on the political Left have -- in certain cases shamefully and opportunistically -- exploited and lied about the issue of enhanced interrogation techniques for fleeting political gain."

Ummm... it got obama elected. How fleeting was that? The only thing the left didn't do, was murder the then president, though they fantasized loudly.

I hope they waterboarded him while lighting up his dinkus with about 50,000 volts.

Finally a thread on the REAL heroes. Just like the battle of Midway, Naval intelligence were the real heroes. Without the element of surprise our fleet, heavily outgunned and outnumbered, could never have pulled off what they did at Midway.

Same here, the seals did their job with typical expertise, but they couldn’t have pulled it off without superior intelligence.

Peter King just confirmed that it was water-boarding of KSM that lead to the info.

Nothing wrong with forceful interrogations if it is done by professionals for war time purposes and it doesn’t approach actual torture,which is something entirely different then water-boarding.When you have people willing to inflict torture on US citizens and servicemen for the sake of punishing them......then it turns into so much nonsense.

Whatever got rid of this man,it is good to tie that particular knot.

yes I was wondering about this as soon as I read that the name of Osama’s “trusted courier” was obtained in interrogations....... so all the vile libs who are preening about the Obama admin. today would have preferred that we never have the name that led us to this raid..... and if they’d had their way Osama would still be alive and hiding in plain sight in Pakistan.

I'm amazed this and the Wikileaks dump of April 25 are not arousing more interest....even here at Free Republic.

On the one hand it shows that waterboarding probably worked, since that info on Maulawi Abd al-Khaliq Jan came from 2 sources: Abu Faraj al-Libi and KSM, 2 of the three people known to have been waterboarded, both at "black sites" before being transferred to Gitmo.

Also it strongly suggests that last week's wikileaks data dump may have triggered an earlier decision by the White House to go ahead with the raid, since the info that the US knew the name of the courier (whom bin Laden was apparently living with) was there for anyone with the patience to read through the dump (of course bin Laden himself was without direct internet access).

Also interesting that they knew al-Libi had been hiding out in Abbottabad for the 2 years before his capture.
