I’ll take my war crimes with a side of waterboarding please

In this country without video proof and a good lawyer, you can just about get away with anything….Well, we may have the video proof.

The Bush administration informed all foreign intelligence and law enforcement teams visiting their citizens held at Guantanamo Bay that video and sound from their interrogation sessions would be recorded, according to documents obtained by The Washington Post. The policy suggests that the United States could possess hundreds or thousands of hours of secret taped conversations between detainees and representatives from nearly three dozen countries.

Looks like it is a race against time at this point to get to them while they are still in office. I’ve heard/read in a few places that the Administration is very, very afraid about what could happen if Dem gets in office and the shitstorm that could arise with access to all these secret items.

Should such videotapes exist, they would reveal how representatives from countries such as China, Egypt, Jordan, Libya, Russia, Saudi Arabia and Tunisia treated detainees in small interrogation booths at the U.S. detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba — sessions that some detainees have said were abusive and at times contained threats of torture or even death. Though attorneys for the detainees have long sought to obtain such evidence, the administration has thus far denied the requests and has not indicated that such tapes exist.
