1. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed did the same thing to us
He pretended to break and give a story about how Iraq helped AQ out. This "intel" was used in the arguments to invade Iraq.

He's probably still being waterboarded, but he's laughing the whole time now.

2. No, he wasn't "tortured"...
Edited on Tue Jan-16-07 03:41 AM by lapfog_1
he was drugged, led to believe that he was being turned over to the Saudi secret police.

When the people playing the part of the secret police were alone with him, he asked that they call a cell phone number. The number belonged to this man:



who, despite his life long love of horse racing, was recalled to Saudi Arabia just before his horse, War Emblem, was to run in the Belmont Stakes for the chance to win the Triple Crown. He returned to Saudi Arabia and suffered a heart attack... and his brother, another highly placed member of the royal family in the secret police, died in a car accident on the way to the funeral.

on edit... Iraq was decided on long before we got our hands on Khalil Sheik Mohamed. Iraq was decided on before 9/11.
