Obama's CIA Man: Afshin Rattansi and ex-CIA man, Ray McGovern

Afshin talks to former CIA official Ray McGovern about the consequences for the new head of the CIA and for the United States after Leon Panetta condemns torture, extraordinary rendition and those that were involved in it all. Also, will Cheney go to jail and what about David Milliband who denies that the UK secret services do not engage in torture despite evidence to the contrary for decades of British illegal activity, from Ireland to Gibraltar?
Hours later and after this interview, Leon Panetta retracted statements about extraordinary rendition or kidnapping and said that the Obama administration will still engage in the practice.

Folks! I gotta idea; since there where no WMD's in Iraq, and we killed over 1M of their people, why don't humbly apologize and give that country reparation( I'm serious, and forgive spelling)

Obama is simply doing a re-run of the Carter presidencies, and he had better prepare for a Ronald Reagan-like figure to loom large in 2012, someone who will put the nation first and the hurt feelings and grievances of terrorists last on our list of national priorities.

so sad,, we call this guy "our president"

[danger0usknowledge]

Cheney's implication is, 'if you investigate us, expect

another domestic attack that will cut Obama's credibility

off at the knees'. He's saying that the new administration

is more concerned with "being nice"

than with killing terrorists. Of course, the de facto Pres.

Cheney never did get OBL not even in time for

the republican convention last year. I was expecting

an announcement by McCain that OBL was dead,

but then, that might have led to a McCain

win & the RNC didn't want that.

I would like to know if Ray McGovern was at the same party as Michael Phelps?

This would be the only way the old man would speak such nonsense.

When

Ray speaks about torture, the only torture is listening to his monotone voice spewing his gibberish.

A Clean frontman, so what?

"ACCUMULATED EVIL" indeed.

The CIA will do waht they want to do, where and when they want.

The only reason we know about Waterboarding and other evil deeds, is that this info is powerful propaganda to induce fear.....not in 'terists'... but in the general public.

The only Power is in the people.
