Effective Interrogation Techniques

Join the New America Foundation and The National Interest for a discussion with Matthew Alexander, the former senior military interrogator who led an elite interrogation team in Iraq that found Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the former al-Qaeda leader, who was killed in a subsequent air strike. Alexander has just authored a cover story for The National Interest on the relationship between interrogation techniques and deradicalization in Indonesia, and has conducted more than three hundred interrogations and supervised more than one thousand.

I have a problem with a few conclusions.

Someone who has never been outside the United States is more wordly? No.

Someone who has a five month course in interogation is now compitent to interogate? No.

Someone who has never seen a muslim before and never been to any muslim country now has a good understanding of the muslim culture? No.

Don't get me wrong, good video, but a number of foundation level statements he makes at the beginning of his speech I find completely incorrect.
