'These are, simply, crimes,' paper says of CIA interrogation program former vice president championed
On the heels of the Senate Intelligence Committee's blistering report on the CIA's brutal handling of prisoners after 9/11, the New York Times is calling for a criminal investigation of former Vice President Dick Cheney and other members of the Bush administration for conspiring to commit torture and other crimes prohibited by federal and international laws.
"Americans have known about many of these acts for years," the Times editorial board stated on Monday. "But the 524-page executive summary of the Senate Intelligence Committee’s report erases any lingering doubt about their depravity and illegality."

I think Dick Cheney needs to take another hunting trip......
The New York Times has lots of great ideas. /s
Investigate the NYTimes for torture.
The next "squirrel" to distract the public now that the "Obama Got Bergdahl" publicity stunt has backfired and come out as the critics expected all along.
Here here!
If ever there were two trash publications that needed to be destroyed, the New York Times and the Washington Post are the ones.
I don’t know how anyone could act the part of enemies of the United States better than these two rags.
I don’t advocate it. I would turn folks in if I knew they were going to do something to these to entities, but I swear I am sick and tired of the anti-American rhetoric out of these entities.
Firstly: it was DEMOCRATIC RESPONSE by a beiotch who was losing power ! (partisoan/ no objectivity)
Secondly: let's look at Benghazi where Executive and Sect. of State lied (no witnesses called in the report/all witnesses sequestered and sworn to secrecy)
Thirdly : "Fast and Furious" where the administration armed a foreign country drug cartel with weapons not allowed even by American citizens. The executive and Attny General own it
Fourthly: Let's look at IRS who purposely and intentionally released confidential information to unauthorized sources (ILLEGALLY) as "ICKY" applicants.
Fifthly: Illegal aliens identified as having all the rights and priviedges of citizenship without being citizens by virtue of a memorandum,and executed by DHS. FUBO !
Sixth : No sustained Southern Border - a clear violation of oath of office by the jerk Executive who selectively decides which laws he will enforce, and which to ignore.
No international soverignty to borders.
Finally: Let's look at ObamaCare that is a tax , but not a tax, but it is a tax (c/o IRS) - without discussion, behind closed doors,by Demorats only.
After you get though with those , then tell me why we should have Cheny and others even answer the issue of why this administration screwed up this world.
Libtard media !
Oh look, a Liberal Group Wet Dream.
I’m sure Cheney is shaking in his Waders. LOL
Maybe France can lend us their haircut machines.
Teh Stupid is powerful in the Slimes...they write this o ed as Obama’s drones have killed civillians.
Only the dimmest bulbs on the Left keep reading the NYTimes. Are the editors under threat by some powerful force? To think it was ever considered the newspaper of record.
New York Tmes editors made the vast, systematic murder of millions during the Holocaust a well hidden footnote once in a while during WWII and today clap their fins together like trained seals every time someone creates from whole cloth a whopping misrepresentaion of Israel or when anyone admits to choosing to engage in homosexual behavior and is willing to plaster the fact across the pages of the New York Times.
One needs to wash one’s hands after reading the New York Times and not just because of the newsprint ink.
Loathesome NYT churls work safe and sound thanks to Cheney/Bush, then bite the hands that make it so.
They can’t seem to comprehend the fact that there are ghouls out there who want to kill them in miserable ways.
I think Dick Cheney needs to take another hunting trip......
“New York Tmes editors made the vast, systematic murder of millions during the Holocaust”...
I would so love to read the book about that.
Buried by the Times, by Laurel Leff, a professor of journalsim, is one such book. Other excellent thinkers have also gone through the times day by day and correlated the silence with what was going on in Europe and proven that the claim is true. How can any supposedly educated person would get all their news from this rag, just because their parents read it. Ditto for NPR.

Thanks. I had heard of Buried by the Times before, but I was wondering if any other books had come out on the topic.
