The CIA inspector general’s office — the spy agency’s internal watchdog — has acknowledged it “mistakenly” destroyed its only copy of a mammoth Senate torture report at the same time lawyers for the Justice Department were assuring a federal judge that copies of the document were being preserved, Yahoo News has learned.
Although other copies of the report exist, the erasure of the controversial document by the CIA office charged with policing agency conduct has alarmed the U.S. senator who oversaw the torture investigation and reignited a behind-the-scenes battle over whether the full unabridged report should ever be released, according to multiple intelligence community sources familiar with the incident.
The deletion of the document has been portrayed by agency officials to Senate investigators as an “inadvertent” foul-up by the inspector general. In what one intelligence community source described as a series of errors straight “out of the Keystone Cops,” CIA inspector general officials deleted an uploaded computer file with the report and then accidentally destroyed a disk that also contained the document, filled with thousands of secret files about the CIA’s use of “enhanced” interrogation methods.

If the CIA dumped too much water in the faces of the mass murderers killing our soldiers and unarmed civilians, I’m just fine with that.
Correct.
No good will come from releasing those files on interrogation methods and particulars. But much harm will.
Yeah relax folks, its was only “mistakenly destroyed.” WHOO BOY! I thought the government could be wrong for a minute there. </sarc>
You want a report on torture? How about this:
1. It is torture to watch the group that by far keeps America fed, clothed, healed, protected and runs the trains on time lose ground culturally to the group that fights and fornicates like stray dogs.
2. It is more torturous to watch the casualties to civilized nations and innocent people rack up by the tens of thousands than it is to depopulate a couple of ‘nations’ stuck in savagery and poverty for centuries of a handful of unwashed barbarians who think murder is a sport.
3. The price of refusing to make the nightmares of one such savage come true will eventually be measured in the nightmares of every man, woman and child in an entire city or nation coming true at once.
