"special unit of interrogators for key terrorism suspects, focusing on intelligence-gathering instead of building criminal cases for prosecution"
Of course, they are going to LET THEM GO after TORTURING THEM, right?
"Special unit to interrogate terror suspects considered
WASHINGTON - The Obama administration is considering creating a special unit of interrogators for key terrorism suspects, focusing on intelligence-gathering instead of building criminal cases for prosecution, a government official said yesterday.
The recommendation is expected from a presidential task force that plans to send findings to the White House Tuesday. The official said the panel, which has not completed its work, has concluded that the unit of intelligence and law enforcement agencies should be created. The task force is unsure which agencies should have a role, according to the official, who was not authorized to publicly discuss the panel’s work.
THAT is a LIE, Globe!!!
"the CIA and FBI are expected to be important players"
Ben LaBolt, a White House spokesman, said President Obama has not reviewed the task force’s recommendations. The recommendation about the new unit was first reported in yesterday’s Wall Street Journal.
The unit’s structure would depart from such work under the Bush administration, when the CIA had the lead and sometimes exclusive role in questioning Al Qaeda suspects.
So now OBAMA will have an EVEN MORE SECRET AGENCY TORTURING PEOPLE at our BLACK SITES -- for NO REASON AT ALL!!!!
And how come the Globe excised this from the report?
More than 90 percent of the detainees held at the U.S. military base in Cuba when Obama signed an executive order closing the prison remain there. To its critics, "Gitmo" is a concrete-and-steel symbol of an American gulag; to supporters, it is as a critical safeguard against terrorism.
Except 9/11 was an INSIDE JOB!
