“...Rand Paul (R-KY) wrote a whole op-ed about why Haspel, who was “complicit in torture,”...”
What we did to the terrorists was less torture than what Paul’s neighbor did to him.
You got that right.
EITs are not torture. Other than actual waterboarding, we do the same types of techniques to our own Special Operations Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines during their selection and training process. Paul is an idiot on this.
Heck, Hillary Clinton was complicit in torturing the entire country for years, and they still said she was qualified to be president.
