9/11 alleged mastermind comes out against Haspel's nomination as next CIA chief
Fox News ^ | 9 May 2028 | Lukas Mikelionis

The alleged mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, like the Senate intelligence panel's Democrats, has come out against President Donald Trump's nomination of Gina Haspel to lead the CIA.

Both Mohammed and the Democrats question whether Haspel, a longtime CIA agent, is fit to run the agency given her involvement in the torture of prisoners following the attacks in 2001.

Haspel is due to appear Wednesday before the Senate Intelligence Committee for her confirmation hearing.

The Al-Qaeda leader, who was captured in March 2003 and was reportedly tortured, asked a military judge Monday at the U.S. prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to share an attachment titled "Additional Facts, Law and Argument in Support" with the intelligence committee, the New York Times reported.

The attachment contains "six specific paragraphs of information" regarding Haspel and was written by Mohammed himself. Marine Lt. Col. Derek A. Poteet, one of Mohammed's lawyers, claims his legal team believes the information is important.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is joining the Senate intelligence panel's Democrats in opposition to Gina Haspel.

This will insure that the democrats and the media will be fighting her nomination!

In a truly bizarro world, they would reject Haspel and find someone in the Muslim Brotherhood, if that person was to Khalid’s liking. Surely Paul would go along also.

Then we can proudly say we are a dhimini nation and Obama’s efforts wee not in vain.

This human excrement needs to be water boarded to the brink of death, sling loaded on a helicopter, lit on fire and dropped a 1000 feet.

1-Waterboarding is NOT "torture"!

- There is no physical damage.

-Waterboarding was a standard part of U.S. officer training to learn to resist interrogation

2-Waterboarding was approved by DoD legal offices AND both parties in Congress

3-It was only used on 3 of the most senior & key terrorists.

4-It worked and saved lives.

5-Haspel was NOT in the chain of command that implemented these instances.

6-Haspel did NOT "run the interrogation sites"!

“This old boy will now be a keynote speaker (via video link) at the next DemocRAT Convention!”

Perhaps second up after the leftists’ favorite cop-killing hero Mumia Abu-Jamal.
