Can't find any...Anyone know?
I do find an investigation, by a Senate Committee, headed by Feinstein, I do not see any results.

2. No need. The guy at the top confessed to ordering it.
Everything for which you don't get thrown in jail is legal.

USA is a torturing country. We have no moral superiority to North Korea or Syria in that regard.

3. According to this current Administration "Advanced Interrogation Techniques" are not torture.
No one from the current Administration has stated water boarding or anything, for that matter, done by the former Administration was illegal.. So one can only conclude that water boarding is completely legal in this country at this time..

4. I have very strong feelings on this. Bush said to the world
"We do not torture"...and there is some question about that...At least an impartial investigation, somewhere, anywhere..
..UN.. World Court
.. This is very sad.
